I know it certainly doesn't look like a proper opera cake - but at least it tasted good...

Opera @ 寶藏巖

The Opera House during Vivid Sydney 2010. Nikon D50, exposure times varied between 1 sec up to around 3 sec at approx f/8-12. I took multiple photographs of the Opera house's many looks during Vivid Sydney 2010.

Oslo Opera House is undoubtedly one of the most striking examples of modern architecture that I have seen. It looks almost like a spaceship from Starwars!

No matter where you decide to take a rest along the harbour foreshore you’re sure to catch a glimpse of the Opera House.

 

Designed by the Danish Architect Jørn Utzon who won an international competition for his design in 1956. Conflict arose between Utzon and the builders over the construction and he resigned. He never returned to Australia to see his masterpiece. It was finished in 1973.

Sinopse:

Eugene Onegin, um nobre habituado ao luxo da corte imperial russa, herda de um tio distante uma propriedade rural. Diverte-se a caçar e com a simplicidade da pequena aristocracia local. Ali conhece Tatiana, uma jovem sonhadora que alimenta a alma sensível com a leitura de romances e poesia. Na sua ingénua pureza, a jovem não hesita em confessar seu amor por Onegin através de uma carta. Surpreso e invulnerável, ele diz-lhe com rude franqueza que não pode corresponder a tal amor.

Pouco tempo depois, ao matar num duelo o jovem poeta Lenski, noivo de Olga, irmã de Tatiana, o implacável Onegin parte para uma longa viagem. De volta a São Petersburgo, é convidado para um baile no palácio do príncipe Gremin. Ali o aguarda uma perturbadora surpresa: a elegante anfitriã, esposa de Gremin, é Tatiana. Fascinado, Onegin compreende seu erro, o que aprofunda ainda mais o vazio da sua vida. Dominado pela paixão, escreve uma carta a Tatiana, e ousa até entrar nos seus aposentos, implorando uma resposta. Embora ela confesse a Onegin que o seu amor adolescente não foi esquecido, ela diz-lhe, com firme determinação, que se tornou uma mulher e jamais encontraria ao seu lado respeito e felicidade. Ordenando-lhe que a deixe para sempre.

In Lyon. In retrospect, it looks like a train station.

A morning shoot at Magic Point and late afternoon around Circular Quay. Weather inclement, photos pleasant. All long exposures of between 10 and 30 seconds.

Saigon Opera House (Ho Chi Minh Municipal Theater) was built at the turn of the 20th century as a classical opera house to entertain French colonists.

Built at the end of the 1870s, this Neo-Renaissance building decorated with Baroque motifs that is the Opera House boasted the most modern theatre technology of its time.

The Opéra Garnier is one of the Paris National Opera's two home venues in the city. It was built from 1861 to 1875 on a commission of Napoleon III, along with the Place de l'Opéra on which the building stands, at the intersection of Boulevard des Capucines and Avenue de l'Opéra. Inaugurated as "le Nouvel opéra de Paris" (the New Paris Opera), the venue became known as the "Palais Garnier" within the first decades of its existence, acknowleding the plans and designs of its architect Charles Garnier. The Paris National Opera now uses the Palais Garnier mainly for ballet. The Palais Garnier also houses the Bibliothèque-Musée de l'Opéra de Paris (Paris Opera Library-Museum), although the Library-Museum is no longer managed by the Opera and is part of the Bibliothèque Nationale de France.

Paris Opera House at night. Took with a Nikon D80 18-200 lens VR. Hand held! Even had the opportunity to see the London Phantom leads sing a duet the next day inside the very Opera House that the Musical is based on. Amazing!
