Convention Centre in Darling Harbour Sydney for Treasure Tuesday

 






The Convention Centre commands a view across the harbour towards Barangaroo, once a busy container terminal and now transformed into a modern waterfront precinct. Regrettably, the nearby shopping centre and adjoining food court were obscured by substantial construction works, detracting somewhat from the immediate surrounds. Fortuitously, the Australian National Maritime Museum—home to the historic submarine HMAS Onslow—lies in close proximity. Commissioned in 1969 and serving with distinction during the Cold War era, Onslow now rests in dignified retirement as a museum vessel. I took the opportunity to capture several photographs in the vicinity of the submarine and its maritime environs before attending the conference.

  1. Bellas imágenes del centro de convenciones. Debe tener mucha vida económica. Y ese submarino tiene una forma curiosa que se sale de la normal imagen de un submarino.

  3. That submarine probably has more stories than an adventure novel! What a beautiful and history-filled place—I’d love to visit it someday.
