Sydney Harbour New Years Eve Time-lapse 2010 produced for the City of Sydney.

The brief was to capture 9pm and 12am fireworks from various locations around the city. As the city was locked down, crews were pre-positioned and remained on location until the early hours.

To capture the landscape and fireworks in a single frame, dual cameras were setup with exposures set for the highlights and shadows respectively. The exposures were then merged in post.
