A view inside the Opera House
One thing I like about the Opera House is how the inside structure complements the unique exterior design. My goal in this photo was to give a view into the interesting concrete ribs, glass, and metal that you see inside while showing the outside at the same time. This is the “backside” to the smallest of … Continue reading
Festival of Winds at Bondi Beach
This blog is in serious need of some Ex-lax. I’m having trouble remembering back two whole weeks to all the fun things we did when my parents were here, but it’s simply got to move along because it’s getting very behind. So here goes. Day 3 of Nana and Papa’s visit we took the train … Continue reading
Opera Bar Panorama
I just posted a new photo to my photoblog showing the Opera Bar at night with its incredible views.
Photos from our first month
We just posted a new set of photos – our first month in Sydney, and our visit to the Blue Mountains. See the photos here.
Harbour Bridge Climb
When he heard she was coming to visit us in Sydney, my mom’s boss dared her to climb the Harbour Bridge. When news of this reached Daniel and I, we immediately wanted in. So last Wednesday, the day before we left for 6 days in the Great Barrier Reef, all 4 of us (my stepdad … Continue reading
Shimmering Opera House
It seems I will never get tired of shooting the Sydney Opera House due to its interesting shapes and the way it catches the sunlight. It seems there is always a new angle or different light to capture. The sun was bursting through the clouds this particular day. Shot from one of the Sydney ferries … Continue reading
National RUOK Day
Just learned something new today, and had a mystery solved at the same time. The first day my parents were here two weeks ago, while walking home from the park we were delighted to see a plane writing something in the sky. I always love sky writing – wondering what they’re going to say, watching … Continue reading
Date Night at the Opera House
The highlight of the “us” time afforded to us by having the grandparents visit, was Daniel’s and my date night last Monday. Our 10th anniversary is coming up next month, but since we won’t have child care on our anniversary, we decided to celebrate early. We had gotten tickets to see a symphony at the … Continue reading
Tap tap. Is this thing on?
So I guess by now you’ve figured that either we’re dead, or we have been really enjoying grandparent time, seeing as we basically haven’t touched the blog in 2 weeks. (It’s the latter, in case you were worried that there are blogs in the after life.) We just got home a few hours ago from the … Continue reading
Enter Grandparents
Nana & Papa are here! (For those of you who don’t know, that is my mom and stepdad.) They arrived on Friday morning and will be here for 2 weeks. This is awesome on multiple levels. 1. It’s good to see them. 2. It’s good to see anyone from home! 3. It’s especially good to see Naomi … Continue reading
