Circular Quay at night for Sunday Best

 












The Vivid Sydney 2025 festival, though notably more subdued in its scale and spectacle compared to previous years, still offered moments of charm and quiet wonder. While the grandeur of earlier editions may have been tempered, it remained a pleasant experience to wander through the illuminated streets, capturing the glow of the light installations that adorned the city. The event, now a well-established fixture in Sydney’s cultural calendar since its inception in 2009, continues to draw visitors with its blend of creativity, innovation, and public art—even in its more restrained form.

  2. Wow, what a terrific light show on that building, and on the Opera House. I suspect everyone in the World knows that iconic bridge from the Sydney New Years fireworks display.

  5. We have a celebration the beginning of September called LUMA that your pictures remind me of. Of course, since our city only has about 47,000 people it is on a much smaller scale. I loved your first picture of the city from on high.

  9. Super night shots!! And I've enjoyed seeing your comments on Kwarkito's blog. He's a remarkable person-- an actor, and the epitome of French youth from decades past. I feel very fortunate that I have a number of creative and intelligent blog friends-- yourself included.

  18. I had to google the building, because it looked familiar. Duh! Customs House. We walked by it a lot, and there were always interesting plant displays in front of it. It looks so different in the variety of lights and colors. That's a striking tower behind it on the left. I couldn't ID that building. Such fun, Roentare! Thanks for sharing.
