An Australian photographer has taken the art of photography to a whole new level after hiring a chopper to catch a glimpse of the Sydney skyline brimming with colours at this years Sydney Vivid festival.

After missing the annual outdoor lighting festival all together last year, Nate Smith spent a year to plan the shoot at 2100 ft above Sydney during this years vivid festival.

Mr Smith hired a chopper and put together a flight plan that would assist him in capturing stunning snippets of the light show from above.

Mr Smith said the Sydney skyline as seen from a chopper at 2100 ft during this years Vivid festival is 'well worth the effort and expense'
'I've seen lots and lots of really beautiful images from this years event but I wanted to do something different and this is the result, plus I've always wanted to photograph Sydney at night so all these extra lights make it just a little more special,' Mr Smith said.
The award-winning photographer is originally known as one of the world's leading surf photographers, having worked with surfers like Kelly Slater, Tom Carroll and Taj Burrow.
On this occasion however, Smith's photography captured the beauty of the seaside metropolis, as it transformed into an amazing canvas of light.
'Sydney from 2100 ft is something to see and well worth the effort and expense,' Mr Smith said about the experience.
The Vivid festival ran across Sydney from May 22 to 8 June this year.
