Posted by Andrew Gould (Sydney, Australia) on 15 May 2008 in Cityscape & Urban and Portfolio.
Taken today, Thursday 15th of May 2008 at 11:23am, on my way through the city centre.
I've posted other shots from this same part of the city, but this one is different due to the mist in the air, which caused this lighting effect.
Thanks for visiting my pages. I welcome all comments and any constructive criticism.
Thursday 24th of June: Just returned last night from the trip to Northern Australia, during which I was hardly able to get online at all. Thanks for all the comments lately. It will take me a few days, but I'll catch up with return visits to your pages.

Such a great sense of hustle and bustle in the heart of the city ... the light is terrific and those orange banners really draw one deeper into the scene ...

I really like it Andrew - the lovely orange banners draw your eye into the centre of the image - very nice framing and composition

Yes, that light mist has enhanced the perception of depth. Love these candid shots around a city . . they catch so much.

Thanks Andrew for yours great comments on my blog. I like on this shot the contrast between the misty atmosphere and vivid colors of flags. Well done.

Cool city shot. Some serious advertizing going on for cebit. You've captured the essence of the city.

@Observing: Thank you. I didn't know what Cebit was until I looked it up on the Internet a moment ago. I see it's a huge technology trade show, and that it will be on in Sydney next week.
this is a great city street scene, love how the buildings are hidden a little bit behind the mist and the flags bring a bit of extra character into the shot as well!
