Look Who's Here - The Earth

Wednesday July 4, 2007
It's not really who but what. And what they are are 120 large-scale photographs of various aspects of the earth on display 24 hours a day at Darling Harbour until December 26.

The exhibition is called Earth from Above and they comprise work by French photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand depicting landscape and people from an aerial perspective.

Arthus-Bertrand undertook the ambitious project of visually recording the state of the planet at the start of the new millenium.

Each of Arthus-Bertrand's breathtaking photographs on display measures 1.8m x 1.2m. The exhibition is at Darling Harbour's Urban Stream and is free to the public.
