Despite the spectacular cliffs, I found it hard to get a photo that I was happy with due to the harsh light.

Shot the opening night of Vivid 2023 from the Shangri-la hotel, giving a view over the whole harbour. Didn’t have a lens skirt—and didn’t think there were reflections at the time—but had to spend ages painting the reflection out just above the opera house.
The first shot is a composite from multiple points throughout the evening. The sky and most of the buildings are from a shot just before sunset, then the lights and trails of the boats are from some shots just after sunset. The fireworks are a separate shot, taken with a different lens! I didn’t plan to include this in the composite, but realised that I could take the telephoto view of the fireworks from the 18-105mm and line it up over the wide shots from earlier in the evening.

Some test shots with the Mini 3, trying to get the light of the sunset on the city.

Lacking other ideas, decided to play with motion blur by tracking waves as the came to shore.

Borrowed an Olympus TG 6 to use while rafting down the Franklin river. Could have used a bigger sensor and bigger lens.

These are two very different panoramas. The second is hand-held at a moderately wide angle, as usual. The first is taken on a tripod, with the lens zoomed all the way in. This let me capture a wide-angle shot while maintaining a shallow depth of field, which you’d almost never see in a single shot.
