Sydney is a beautiful city, an instant favorite of mine and of many visitors.
Panoramic photos are best viewed large, but that can be a test of patience on the net. The "large versions" here are 50kb-100kb JPEG files that will be about seven inches wide when downloaded. The "larger versions" are about 600-800 kb JPEG files. Click on their respective text to see the large and larger versions.

This was an outdoor event of an Australian society devoted to singing acapela. The several groups I heard were great! A real treat for the shoppers in The Rocks that day.

Walking a few blocks from The Rocks affords this view of the upstream side of the Harbor Bridge. I needed the walk, having smoked a super-strong Cuban cigar that left my head spinning. Cuban cigars are banned in the U.S., so I took the opportunity to try one, a small H. Upmann, while my wife shopped in the Rocks. Wow. Excuse me if I had trouble holding the camera level.

These photographs were taken in Sydney in March of 1997 using a handheld Noblex 150 panoramic camera and Konica 200 film.
