Red Beak

Red beak, black pearl body, this beautiful swan poses for me as the sun glistens off its oily feathers.

Judgment day..

As soft fluffy white clouds suddenly burst into flames, they roll across the sky raining fire down on the citizens of Sydney, judgment day is here.
Just kidding. It was a lazy Saturday morning and I had mistakenly been woken up by an alarm which was meant for Monday.. Just as I was about to go back to sleep, through the gap in the curtains I see this. I quickly got the camera, and snapped a photo from my bedroom window, then went back to sleep.. turned out okay I think, except the buildings are a bit grainy, there was absolutely no light except from the bright red clouds, so I set it to 800 ISO, with an exposure time of 1/125 of a second, hence the grain.

Ray of light..

This turned out better then I had expected. I was annoyed at being in the wrong spot for the perfect sunset picture, but this opportunity through the trees made it worthwhile. The light had almost faded completely, a slight adjustment decrease on the shutter speed, changed setting to a sunny day white balance, a slight increase in sharpness and contrast, gave enough light to show a nice foreground even with the backlit setting. Even better that this turned out as I didn't have enough time to grab my tripod, so it was a quick handheld shot.

Vikrant..

Taking a photo, of a photographer, taking a photo. Smart guy with a good eye for photography.

Clowing around..

Say hello to the clowns at luna park..

Javeria..

My friend Jav what a great smile, peace is what the world needs more of.

Baby feet..

Baby feet, having never walked on earth, when she does, its one small step for a baby one giant leap for her parents.

Patience..

At the park, this man waits for the perfect sunset moment.
Having gotten there early, with his big afro hair, he stretches out and relaxes on his wooden folding chair, at his prime sunset spot. Camera in hand and ready!
He shields his eyes waiting for the earth to turn in his favor.
Forget the sunset... that happens everyday, this cool character i had to take.

All is still..

In the still Of the night, the pier holds the rope holds the boat. All is well.
Water is dead still, a few people still awake.. I just love the effect of this caramelised light..

Luna Park..

Who doesn't like amusement parks.. No matter to what age I live, there will always be a smile on my face and excitement in my heart when I enter an amusement park.

My buddy Smita..

Yea.. I Thought I saw a kitty kat. In contrast to the photo, That which is Smita.. is far from black and white.

The wait..

Heres another one, I've got the Sydney harbour blues.. the perfect photo is well out of reach.
