Happy new year to everyone here, and to their their families and friends !
I thought should share a few photos I took at the Sydney New Year Fireworks. Every year, over a million people cram into the areas surrounding the Sydney Harbor bridge, to view the main attraction, the fireworks on the bridge itself, however there are hundreds of thousands more people viewing the other fireworks displays positioned at various locations along the Parramatta river, running across Sydney.
This year I chose to fight the crowd and managed to find a spot close to the bridge. I have to say though the firework display looks more spectacular on TV than in person because there are simply too much smoke, by the end of it you can barely see anything. I was probably too close to it, it will be much better if I view it from a location further away.
and the smoke grows thicker and thicker.
The crowd started the hour long walk back to the main train station, through the lingering blanket of smoke.
