Celebrating the Royal Australian Navy’s 125 years of service to the nation.
Hosted by the Royal Australian Navy (RAN), the review was the largest gathering of foreign warships in Sydney Harbour in more than a decade and marked 125 years of the Australian Navy’s service to the nation.
The RAN was joined by the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) in an impressive aerial display above Sydney Harbour.
Large crowds gathered along the foreshore to witness the celebrations, and I was one of them at the Sydney Opera House forecourt where I captured the following images.
