QE2 in Sydney by

The most famous ship in the world, Cunard’s Queen Elizabeth 2, moored in Sydney’s Circular Quay. To give her well-to-do passengers something to look at as they dined on their spatchcock entrées and awaited her departure, it was arranged to have the Sydney Opera House positioned just across the Quay.

In case you’re wondering how this image would look full size, here’s a 100% crop from a section of the image:

    Thanks Jason. There are 10 shots in this panorama, and each is 10 megapixels. The version I have up at the moment is actually only half the size it could have been. I don’t have enough memory on my computer to edit the full size originals so I had to scale it down by 50% to put it together. I’ll redo it once I upgrade my computer!

    Thanks Lisa. The lighting was a bit troublesome, actually. The lights on the QE2 were so incredibly bright that if I exposed for them you wouldn’t have seen anything else! It’s good that the Opera House always keeps the porch lights on, though. They must have been expecting guests.
