Judges Comments

My first thought is that I hope this image was taken from a helicopter as the harbour is restricted airspace and drone flights are not allowed.
The image itself shows an unusual perspective of the Sydney Opera House and we are encouraged as photographers to look for alternate viewpoints.
In this instance I am not sure the image works as the Opera House loses its iconic nature and becomes less of a symbol and more a collection of flattened,
jumbled shapes. The image also appears to be falling to the right, especially due to the wide angle effect on Circular Quay, perhaps a tighter crop would help with this?
