Hi all !!
I got transferred to Australia and will be there by next month. But before I'l be coming there on next week as part of an official meeting. I'll be spending 5 days in Sydney and so,does anyone have any recommendations for the top 2 or 3 places to visit in Sydney? I love to click and so it'll be nice if there are some places which are good for photography among your choice.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Best place in Sydney to visit is central railway station which is quite a historic building and also where you can buy a ticket to get out of the joint.

Can take the train to Katoomba and/or Newcastle
Otherwise Manly ferry, Hyde park, botanic gardens and the Rocks and you are just about done
Sydney does summer better

Take a flight with Sydney Seaplanes, fantastic view of the joint. A bit expensive but well worth it if the weather is good

Catch the manly ferry from circular key/quay. That takes you across the harbour and great views of the opera hose and bridge and maybe some 18foot skiffs or foiling moths out sailing if you are lucky in the afternoon. Ferry from circular key to darling harbour takes you under the bridge. From darling harbour you can stay on it for a tour of the harbour. Sydney has lots of things to see on foot around the city. Ask the hotel desk for a tourist map.

And when you do get to Manly, if it's pleasant day, walk to the end of the Corso, turn right and after about 150 metres there's a wide path that leads around a little bay to Shelly beach and Fairy Bower. If it's a very sunny warm day, you may be lucky enough to see the very rare and endangered "pink nosed whiter pointers" basking in the sun on the rocks

If you're on the Manly corso around lunch time and fancy a bit of seafood, there's lots of choices nearby, my favorite is Mongers in Rialto square on Wentworth st. I like the char grilled baby octopus with he tempura vegies

If you are into early mornings, there are iconic photo opportunities of the cliffs near sydney heads. Not sure where but my bro in law has taken some great photos somewhere there.
