You are on fire Keith !! Keep taking those Sydney shots - you can't LOSE !!! If you have the time you need to market this photo, publishers and tourism companies etc, it's a winner. In fact you could put a nice little package of Sydney together and see what happens. They are magnificent photographs :-)

Congrats on another blue ribbon, a very beautiful photograph!

Shoulda saved it for when the team needs it! But then again, this was too rare an opportunity for an 8+. I will never get to that mark. Just can't see it. So congrats.

Absolutely stunning! Congrats on that 8.
Post actions
On top of all the accolades and a blue ribbon, you now have the highest ever score with the lens you used, and the second highest score with the camera (2nd only to Manny--no shame there!). Wow! Let me humbly throw in my congratulations too. Well done!

Congratulations! Now off you go printing lots of postcards and send to everyone ;)

Dude you dominated this like the Aussies in the first test! you beat a pom too :)

when this challenge was announced my first thought was "Firsty is going to win this with a shot of the opera house from north sydney". I was wrong, you were on the bridge. Congratulations.

My one and only 10. SHOULD be a postcard for sure! Lovely colors and reflections and the light and time of day is just perfect.
Post actions
Wow, that is just fabulous...one of the best I have seen of the Sydney Opera House. 10
Post actions
Lovely - iconic. My top pick.
Post actions
Yup, would make me wanna go there.

Post actions
Great shot, excellant job bringing out the best part of Sydney...
Post actions
Nice shot of the Opera House at sunset, nice light, moon, reflections, title.
Post actions
One of my four 10's in this challenge. I have seen SO many photos of the opera house over the years, yet this one made me look twice. Great timing resulting in stunning light and colors.
Post actions
It's almost cheating when you have something this gorgeous to photograph. Nice time of day, nice exposure, excellent presentation.
Post actions
Love the composition, great font. Text is placed well, adds to the photo and doesn't distract.
Post actions
Post actions
Absolutely postcardable. ;>þ

Amazing! Perfect font as well. nothing I can add except congrats on a great image! 10
Post actions
Excellent Postcard. Excellent image!
Post actions
This would make a beautiful postcard! Ribbon material in my book.
Post actions
Beautiful, beautiful photo. I could just see this on a postcard. The font style and color of the text doesn't really seem to compliment the picture as much as it could.
Post actions
This one get top votes from me as Sydney is my favorite city.....
Post actions
Perfect time of day for this shot!
Post actions
Great shot with lovely understated text. This is the best shot i have ever seen of this oft photographed place. Beautiful.
Post actions
OK, glad I finally got to this image. Its one I picked out whilst flicking through the thumbnails. All I can say about this image is that it is just perfect. It really is one of the best in the challenge. Even the tiny moon works for me.. perfect in everyway..
Post actions
Wow, you got it all -- the Sidney landmark with reflection, the sunset, and the moon. Terrific! Beautiful colors and light, and nice simple and effective graphics.
Post actions
Post actions
This is a fabulous shot, but the rule of thirds seems to be barely followed--maybe if the horizon line was a bit lower instead of right thru the middle of the shot?
Post actions
Wow, what a fine shot and the moon gives it perfect balance.
Post actions
Post actions
Wow! One of the best so far, definately a post challenge card
Post actions
Great smooth image! Love the moon in the upper right.

Wonderfully lit, and love the type face. 10

This is a gorgeous shot. I love it. Can I make a susggestion though? I think it would look much better with a little more saturations. Good luck with the voters!
Post actions
a timeless classic view. I especially like the moon in the shot. starting it off with a 9.
Post actions
I never tire of seeing this structure, it is really quite amazing. As is this photo, beautiful light and color. Great job, 10!
Post actions
The moon really kills me. It mimics the shape of the roof of the building. A famous landmakr - captured beautifully. Wonderful tone and reflection.
Post actions
Probably one of the best shots I have seen of the Opera House. I love the smooth mirror quality of the water and the sliver of moon in the back.
Post actions
Gorgeous! Back to bump you up to 9.
Post actions
Absolutely beautiful... hopefully you'll win the blue ribbon with this! gl 10+++

Wonderful lighting and catch of the reflection. The moon adds to the image as well. Nicely done! <9>
