Sydney Opera House during Vivid Light Festival

[GT12]

Some shots earlier this month from the Overseas Passenger Terminal of the Opera House under lights.
Tried some long exposures, some while moving the zoom (28-70mm) to different positions during a 30s exposure.
One with a ferry that fully passed between camera and the Opera House while the shutter was open.

Terrific images Guy. I particularly like the 3rd image where it looks like you cycled through the zoom range 5 or 6 times in that 30 seconds. Magic.

I like the lines spreading outwards in the 3rd one too, nice one.

Awesome shots! Love photo #3, next time when I'm shooting in the dark I will try to create a similar effect. Thank you for the inspiration
