I usually think of this sort of image as a place; a place where you can go and walk around. This seems to be an elegant lobby, simple in form, but complex in ornamentation.
La Bellezza è una costante della Natura. Il Sistema Naturale ha infatti creato una sterinata serie di gioielli viventi, ciascuno dotato di caratteri estetici e dunque di forme e di colori stupefacenti. Difficile classificare l'organismo che, da questo punto di vista, risulti più dotato. In questo caso, però, al cospetto dell'eleganza e della perfezione formale di Libellula quadrimaculata, non si può fare a meno di pensare di aver trovato il massimo ..... ..

La construcción del edificio se llevó a cabo entre 1875 y 1884 y fue financiada por Francisco José I, emperador de Austria y rey de Bohemia, con la condición de que ésta no fuera más grande que la Ópera de Viena. La Ópera de Budapest tiene 1.261 asientos.
Es una de las Operas con mejor acústica del mundo.
Hey team how are we all doing?
It be throwback Thursday today and I've finally finished processing a photo taken 2 weeks ago from my trip to Sydney and the Blue Mountains.
Renown for its unique architecture this crazy critter being the Sydney Opera House continues to fascinate and inspire architects all around the world, or so I'm led to believe. This photo was shot from the Milson's Point side with a 70-300mm telephoto lens on a dodgy tripod.
The processing was done like this; firstly the photo was taken into Lightroom where the massively blinding highlights and whites were dulled down. The shadows were raised up a tad too as some parts of the photo were too dark. Then I played around with the colours using the HSL panel until I got the feel that I liked. I aimed to contrast the bluish sky with the orangey/yellow lights inside the building. I cropped the image and fixed up the horizon to make it straight. I then brought the photo into Photoshop and did some noise reduction using Imagenomic's Noiseware Professional software. Finally I cleaned off the image by using a combination of the clone stamp tool, spot healing brush and the brush tool. The most challenging part of this process was to get the image right in camera with the nasty gale forced winds of that night.
Hope you enjoy this one, and as always feel free to use this image in your videos, your website, you blog, print it out, remix it or do whatever you wish with it as per the CC licence.
All the best my people, don't stop shooting.

The Verona Arena is a Roman amphitheatre in Piazza Bra in Verona, Italy built in the first century. It is still in use today and is internationally famous for the large-scale opera performances given there. It is one of the best preserved ancient structures of its kind. In ancient times, the arena's capacity was nearly 30,000 people. The stage for concerts and opera performances decreases the available places to a maximum of 15,000.
The Sydney Opera House is a multi-venue performing arts centre in Sydney, Australia. Located on the foreshore of Sydney Harbour, it is widely regarded as one of the world's most famous and distinctive buildings and a masterpiece of 20th-century architecture.
Designed by Danish architect Jørn Utzon, but completed by an Australian architectural team headed by Peter Hall, the building was formally opened by Queen Elizabeth II on 20 October 1973, 16 years after Utzon's 1957 selection as winner of an international design competition. The Government of New South Wales, led by the premier, Joseph Cahill, authorised work to begin in 1958 with Utzon directing construction. The government's decision to build Utzon's design is often overshadowed by circumstances that followed, including cost and scheduling overruns as well as the architect's ultimate resignation.
The building and its surrounds occupy the whole of Bennelong Point on Sydney Harbour, between Sydney Cove and Farm Cove, adjacent to the Sydney central business district and the Royal Botanic Gardens, and near to the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
The building comprises multiple performance venues, which together host well over 1,500 performances annually, attended by more than 1.2 million people. Performances are presented by numerous performing artists, including three resident companies: Opera Australia, the Sydney Theatre Company and the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. As one of the most popular visitor attractions in Australia, the site is visited by more than eight million people annually, and approximately 350,000 visitors take a guided tour of the building each year. The building is managed by the Sydney Opera House Trust, an agency of the New South Wales State Government.
On 28 June 2007, the Sydney Opera House became a UNESCO World Heritage Site, having been listed on the (now defunct) Register of the National Estate since 1980, the National Trust of Australia register since 1983, the City of Sydney Heritage Inventory since 2000, the New South Wales State Heritage Register since 2003, and the Australian National Heritage List since 2005. The Opera House was also a finalist in the New7Wonders of the World campaign list.
Viewed from Mrs Macquarie's Point. There are amny vantage points from which to appreciate this amazing building - from a distance of up close rom within its courts. But this night view remains my favourite.
This Opera House exists because a few brave people dared to think differently. From conception to completion, the building tested the limits of engineering, construction and design.
Designed by the Danish architect Jørn Utzon, this World Heritage-listed masterpiece represents a breakthrough in modern architecture. Its famous "sails" have become a symbol of Sydney and modern Australia as a whole.
When the Opera House opened its doors in 1973, a new era of cultural discovery began. Now more than five decades later, it is the nation’s leading tourism destination, one of the world’s busiest performing arts centres and a community meeting place that belongs to all Australians. Its programming spans many arts forms and attracts a variety of audiences in person and online.
My last visit was to take my friends from Spain, Switzerland and Germany who were staying with us. We attended a Bollywood concert presented by Sulaiman and Salim- the Merchant Brothersto a concert hall filled by the Indian Diaspora in Australia. Culture, music, multiculturalism, colour and energy absorbed us all.

A night at the San Francisco Opera...
Is it Art Nouveau or Art Deco? Whatever, and even in the rain, the Buxton Opera House looks beautiful. It's where so many top acts and artists perform....about 30 years after they became famous.
I was coming over the hills from Chesterfield after a long day delivering cakes and bottles down through the Midlands of Bilston, Bromsgrove and Redditch to Evesham before coming back up to East Midlands via the clogged motorways that slowed my progress all day. Stopping in Buxton on the way home just added a little colour to the day.
