The Sydney Water Police has its base at Camerons Cove, in the inner west suburb of Balmain East. It comprises of the Marine Command Area complex and marina. It was built in 2005, replacing facilities in Pyrmont. It has a spectacular backdrop of the Sydney skyline.
“Sydney Ice Bear” was an ice sculpture of a male polar bear that was located in Customs House Square. It was carved by British sculptor Mark Coreth for World Environment Day to highlight the human impact on our environment and to create awareness of climate change. This happened to coincide with the Vivid Sydney festival, so it had quite a spectacular backdrop at night with the light projections on Customs House that I featured yesterday. I featured some daytime shots of the sculpture here.
As part of the Vivid Sydney festival, this bench has been installed on the Circular Quay foreshore, leading up to the Sydney Opera House. The artwork is called “C/C” and is created by Singapore’s Angela Chong. It is illuminated at night with low energy, colour changing LED lights. I thought it was worth photographing during the day because it has such a spectacular backdrop. It’s a shame the view was partly blocked by the hoarding around the escalators which are being repaired.
