Sydney, Australia (Within the City Part 2)

The Sydney Opera House is located at the Sydney Harbour, which is next to Circular Quay and the Ferry Wharfs.
Standing at the Circular Quay, which has good positions for taking pictures, you can see both the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge...

I took my colleague's tripod one night and started snapping away...
The Opera House and Harbour Bridge is so spectacular that I can't stop shooting with my camera...

Circular Quay, the Ferry Wharfs at night...


One early morning, 2 of us (a guy colleague and myself) bought a "Day-Tripper ticket" at AUD17.50. This ticket allowed us to take unlimited ferry, bus and train rides within the day. He bought me on a ferry trip to take a look at the opposite Manly Beach.
We took the first ferry available, which departed from Circular Quay...
(Probably it was too early, there isn't alot of people on board...)




















Ever wondered living in such houses???
Every morning waking up to the beautiful seaview, enjoying breakfast at the balcony with music from the waves...
Going out to sea fishing in your own yacht, parked right at the doorstep...

Sunset Dinner with great view!!!

Just interrupting the series of Australia's posts, with this short one...
Was having dinner with my family at this yacht-club where we can enjoy great view of the yachts, sea and sunset...

After dinner, we strolled along the walkway and I tried my best to capture the yachts with the beautiful sunset view, without a tripod.
(Regretted for not bringing my tripod along that day...)

Sydney, Australia (Within the City Part 1)

Next few days were spent in the City Area. There are so much to see too...

You can 吃东西, 吃东西 and 吃东西... (因为没有什么好买)

Some street-shots...










I was walking by Paddy's Market, and saw a crowd around this dog, which is begging for money with style. 酷呆了!!!



Welcome to Darling Habour, which is just beside the corporate hotel I stayed in...




Looking down to Darling Harbour from the hotel balcony...










Pictures taken from the same spot, at evening to night...



It's getting darker and darker every minute...
(I had to set to a longer shutter-speed to capture these night shots... I like the effects anyway.)














One of the morning, someone suggested going to the Sydney Fish Market... SEAFOOD for breakfast!!! WOW my favourite!!!
(Sydney Fish Market is just one train station away from Darling Harbour)










oOOOOPS... paiseh paiseh... The above Sirloin steak is not from the Sydney Fish Market.
It was my dinner for the previous night... ;0)
所以我说 吃东西, 吃东西 and 吃东西... 餐餐都吃大鱼大肉...







Look!!! The oysters are opened and sold on the spot... SUPER-FRESH!!!
真的是 现 "做" 现卖 啊





Following shots were taken outside the Fish Market, just after our good "makan"
I like the kissing-fish poster...




Beautiful birds... They sure know where to look for the freshest fish...
