Park St, Sydney

Posted by Andrew Gould (Sydney, Australia) on 19 December 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

This is right in the heart of the city centre, and is part of my regular circuit when I go hunting for street shots. Taken shortly before the previous days' station and train shots.

I would like to keep in touch with members of the aminus3 community.

Great to see the G10 being put to good use (I'm loving it also), I'm following your shots daily mate. Cheers.

Bonjour Andrew. Merci pour tous tes commentaires. Le retour au quotidien est un peu dur... la chaleur de l'Afrique et de ses habitants me manque...
Bonne balade à toi dans tes rues préférées de Sydney...

Super image full of life. You are getting shots that are chalk and cheese from the test ones I took with a G10 - yours are just so superior I can hardly believe it's the same camera.

Another nice street shot. Unusual because of the emptiness of the sidewalk directly in front of you. Makes for a special composition.

Nice city shot, but I think the people sitting in that pavement cafe look a bit vunerable being so open.

@Observing: Glad you like this, Mike. I'm not sure in what way you mean vulnerable, though.

I would love to do my Christmas shopping here. You make it look so warm and inviting; I'm especially drawn to the people seated on the right side of the image. Lovely composition.

@Christie: Thanks, Christie. It was the people on the right that immediately attracted me to this scene.

A life outdoors and no frostbite ! Amazing scene.

Re: I'm not sure in what way you mean vulnerable, though.

Hi Andrew, oh I meant people passing so close coughing, smoking or even stopping talking against the partition. Also a phone or bag could be snatched :(

@Observing: Oh, now I see what you mean, Mike. By the way, I forgot to mention that this is a pub -- often referred to as a hotel, over here. It's been modernised, as many others have, and does look like a cafe, as you presumed.

Nice street shot,I like the open space of the pavement in front of all the hustle and bustle !!
