Scenes Around the Art Gallery of New South Wales

by aussiedoug - last update: Feb 16, 2004

The Old, The Green and the New

Interesting juxtaposition
I liked the way this bronze statue (of sorts) had both the domain and also some of the city skyline framing it.

I sat on the ground in front of it to take this photograph. Enlarge it to see the city building more clearly. There was a bit too much light when I took it. Would have been better if it had been cloudy or late in the afternoon.

Across from Art Gallery through the Domain 2 City

This really is a closeup shot of the previous one, giving the detail of the buidling much more closely. No need to click on this one to see the building more clearly, but you still can if you want to.

The Art Gallery of New south Wales is in a beautiful spot. Greenery all round it and some water views as well. Also within walking distance of lady Macquarie's Chair.

Centrepoint, or is it AMP, Tower Now?

Took this photo just across from the Art Gallery to show again how the trees & greenery highlight so nicely some of the cityscape of the Knee of Sid (=Sydney).
