Thanks everyone for your wonderful comments, awards and faves. It is very much appreciated.

 

Day 1 - figured the only way to work through the volumes of photos I took on our cruise is to start at the very beginning, which of course was sailing out of Sydney harbour. Unfortunately this old shack got in the way of a great view of the city. Maybe I can photoshop it out ...

Dubai Opera, a stunning landmark in Downtown Dubai, is a hub for cultural events, live performances, and opera shows, celebrated for its modern architecture, iconic design, and breathtaking views of the Dubai skyline, making it a favorite spot for travel photography, night photography, and capturing city lights, reflections, and symmetry in architecture.

   

I have always loved this old handmade checker board and this well worn pair of opera glasses.

Three fun facts:

 

1) It ran significantly over-budget to construct,

 

2) The architect didn't live to see it completed, and;

 

3) It is forbidden to take photographs inside of it.

la réalisation de ce grand dessein confié par louis XV à Jacques Ange Gabriel devait demander plus de vingt ans. Au cours de cette longue période, Gabriel, qui avait étudié les principaux théâtres d'Italie, en particulier ceux de Vicence, de Bologne, de Parme, de Modène et de Turin, présenta au roi différents projets dont aucun ne fut accepté. C'est seulement en 1768 que le roi, en prévision des mariages successifs de ses petits-enfants, se décida enfin à donner l'ordre de commencer les travaux. Ceux-ci furent poussés activement et l'Opéra, achevé en vingt-trois mois, fut inauguré le 16 mai 1770, jour du mariage du Dauphin avec l'archiduchesse Marie-Antoinette, avec une représentation de Persée de Quinault et Lully.
