The Sydney Opera House has always amazed me. Growing up in Sydney I remember the slow process of the building being constructed and following the progress on the TV news. I also remember being totally in awe and amazed when my parents took me there as a child on my first visit. I am still totally in awe of this building and on every visit share the same fascination today as I did on my first visit all those years ago. Through my lens I have sought to isolate individual sections of the building and explore how light plays a role in highlighting the various shapes and tones of the building.
