Older photos – part 2

Next up we have my partial attempt at Sculptures by the Sea at Bondi Beach, partial in the fact that I only got half way before having to leave to head to dinner. Definitely need to make more of an effort to go, more than once preferably as it's one of those events that is always so much fun (photographically). So much choice of subject and in varying environment makes it a challenge to capture something different.

Would love some comments on this photo, bit of an experiment with the composition and the post (and funnily enough, not even a sculpture itself!)

Below is my take on Sculptures by the Sea 2011.

So the reason the photos from above were cut short was the need to attend Steve's and Janet's birthday at Hurricanes in Darling Harbour. Photos from the night below, nothing too fancy seeing as I only had my 35mm f/2 and no flash with me (I've been pretty lazy these days).

Sculptures by the Sea – Bondi – 2009

Went on a little trip to Bondi to check out the Sculptures by the Sea exhibition at Bondi Beach on the 12th of November with Winnie and Jimmy. It was a ridiculously hot day but a couple of hours later, the clouds came rolling in and thunder could be heard. Before we knew it, the rain came pouring down as we scuttled to get back to our cars, drenched. It was a fun day though and I managed to get some okay shots, not as many or as good as I would have liked, but it was interesting to use a different lens this time round. I would have liked to try again with the wide angle, but I didn't get the opportunity (well I was lazy) to go back there and reshoot.

Photos are below (note: the first two aren't sculptures obviously).
