Sydney Harbour Bridge and getting lucky

Bridge name: Sydney Harbour Bridge

Opened: March 1932

Length: 1149 meters

Height: 134 at the height point

Shot from: The footpath on Anzac Bridge

Opened in March 1932 and joining the North Shore to the Sydney CBD. The awesome Sydney Harbour Bridge is 1146 meters in length and 134 meters at its highest.

I’ve spent the last couple of years trying to find its best angle.

Last Sunday I came across this view from the footpath on the Anzac Bridge, whilst I was doing a separate shoot on the Anzac Bridge. An unexpected find, but it’s a pretty sweet angle I’d have to say.

Maybe not the greatest angle of all time as there are so many great views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, but it’s up there in the top 5. A few of my favourites are here too https://chasinglight.photo.blog/2021/10/07/the-bridges-of-sydney-series-the-one-and-only-sydney-harbour-bridge/

You never know your luck in a big city as they say. So I was grateful to just stumble across this awesome view. That’s the thing about photography that I love the most. Sometimes you can spend weeks plannings shoot and researching the best angles.

And other times it just hits you in the face. So it’s always best to keep your eyes open for a spot of good fortune.

Til next time!
