St Francis Pray For Us - Moods of A City #14 - The HDR Series, Sydney Australia
This shot was taken at Dawn from the building I work in it shows the Spire of St Francis Xavier Church at Lavender Bay in the North Sydney CBD. The Sydney Harbour Bridge links the North Sydney CBD with the Sydney CBD.
There has been a church on the site since the early days of the settlement of the colony of Sydney Town.
The shot was taken using a Nikon D300, Nikon 18 – 200mm lens , for any Nikononians the 18-200mm lens is wonderful it comes in handy as a all purose lens.
The shot was created from 4 exposures and processed with Photomatix HDR software.
So continues my exploration of HDR.. its fun

There’s a lot in this. Looks as though it pays to start work early, Philip. And how lucky are you to have this view! I love the glow on the city.

I so am wanting to travel “down unda”. They just keep getting better! You keep sending out shots like this the population or travel to Australia will increase tremndously. I don’t think I spelt that right, oh well it late!

A wonderful shot. The view of Sydney Town is always good from that direstion but your office window seems to be better than I have experienced. Beautiful lighting and treatment.

This is a wonderful view of the city and shows it in such a gorgeous light. BTW, you are just around the corner from my workplace, overlooking Neutral Bay. Isn’t it great to work looking out at a piece of the harbour!

Wow the Nikon D300 is fantastic. I just got myself the D80 and it’s fine for what it is, but damn! that is some really fine photography. I was considering saving for a Canon 5D but at the look of these photos Nikon sure make a fair case for it.
Well done.
