NOV 2012 VOL 6 - Sculpture by the sea

The Sculpture by the sea event 2012, was another opportunity to remind ourselves what a beautiful city is Sydney. This has become one of Sydney's most popular events, combining the breathtaking scenery of Bronte, Tamarama and Bondi Beaches, wonderful Spring weather, and world class sculpture. We haven't attempted to show every exhibition piece here, but simply a taste of the wonderful experience that is Sculpture by the sea. The trail begins in North Bronte.
