Harbour Bridge and Opera House

Sydney's two defining landmarks are the Harbour Bridge, the largest metal-arch bridge of this design in the world and of course the opera house. So while there are many other things to photograph about Sydney, the lens is regularly drawn to these two items, often together in the same shot. Here are some of my favourites.

(They also appear in a few of my panoramas.)

They don't let you take your own camera so they can sell you their pictures, so I didn't go.
