'He that will not reflect is a ruined man'

Vivid Sydney, 2011

It is Sunday the 5th of May 2011; Phil Lam, Chris Setio & myself set out to capture the event held that eve.Vivid Sydney is a festival of lights, music & ideas held annually in Sydney. This year there were over 40 illuminated attractions but time & weather limited our ability to see all that was available. It was the first time I had attempted any serious night photography on my 7D. The night would not have been complete without a borrowed tripod thanks to Brian Wong and the assisted tuition from my dear friends who guided me to the fine arts of night photography. Without them, the following shots would never have been possible.

It was an amazing night. Lots of fun, lots of lights & lots of colour.

Vivid Sydney, 2011 - More Than Just Lights

Planking was in conversation all week & what better location to do it than in front of Sydney's iconic monument.

We couldn't help ourselves. That is all.
