Harbour Bridge

The Harbour Bridge and the Opera House are the 2 things that come to mind first, when you think of Sydney. The glorious waterfront bustling with tourists, the shops, the entertainment in and around Circular Quay, the skyline dominated by the tall buildings of the CBD and the numerous eateries are all the things to look forward to.
The way both Melbourne and Sydney have made good use of their waterfronts is commendable. I rue the fact that the same cannot be said about India, where we continue to pollute our rivers and canals.

Through Wall & Water


Through Wall & Water
Originally uploaded by Sidheart Chandrashaker

Shot at the entrance to the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne.

The NGV is located on the famous Saint Kilda Rd. The exhibition includes European paintings, Chinese, South East Asian and Indian sculpture, Modern Art and even Egyptian excavations. Highlight for me was
Anguish by August Friedrich Albrecht SCHENCK
The singer Farinelli and friends by Jacopo Amigon, where the eyes and the feet of the people in the painting follow you :

Katsushika Hokusai: The hollow of the deep-sea wave off Kanagawa :

The modern art section was a bit disappointing but i guess that is more to do with my lack of understanding.

Overall a worthwhile experience. Do visit the Tea shop, where you get to taste a variety of tea flavours from around the world. Though entry to the gallery is free, you've got to pay for the tea.

New Year 2010

Happy New Year folks. What a way to bring in the New Year, at the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Do enjoy the video of the fireworks display and endeavour to watch it live at least once in your lifetime. I believe it gets better each passing year and I can promise you, this is one thing you wouldn't wanna miss.

12 Apostles


12 Apostles
Originally uploaded by Sidheart Chandrashaker
The Twelve Apostles is a collection of limestone stacks, Port Campbell, the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia.The site is a popular tourist attraction and has been part of many Bollywood and Kollywood movies. Originally the site was called the Sow and Piglets but was renamed the Twelve Apostles to attract tourists. The rate of erosion at the base of the limestone pillars is approximately 2 cm per year. The coastline is at constant war with wind and the waves thus giving us this spectacular view.

There are 2 routes to the 12 apostles, the scenic or tourist route from Torquay to Port Campbell, which is a spectacular but curvy route along the coast and the other a straightforward route through the country side that doesn't offer much.
