I spent a couple of days in Sydney last week at a conference. I was about 15min walk from the Darling Harbour. I had great plans of heading out at night to get some night shots(I even took my tripod), but a colleague twisted my arm in to going out for a few drinks..every night :)

I managed to duck out one lunch and grab some shots. Not the best lighting, and there was a lot barricading being erected for Jessica Watson's return.

Anyway, I got the idea for this compiliation from an artwork in the hotel room in which I stayed for a conference. There was a series of simiar backlit images framed separately.

You can see from these shots the arches are made from millions(literally according to Wikipedia) of Swedish tiles.

Nice framing! The desaturation you used on the original photos works really well in my opinion!
