Photographing architecture and a photographer MG_6415
I have met a mystery photographer today in Sydney. A lady in late 40s perhaps early 50s was photographing MLC building both from the outside and the inside. She even had to explain to security what she was doing as they were concerned over the building copyrights.
I have approached her and introduced myself while showing her this photograph. She was photographing the same space as I was and I can guess she will have me in her frame positioned exactly the same as she was here. She said she likes photographing architecture and that she is an exhibited photographer but would not disclose her identity.

lollipop man MG_6412
Couple of construction workers having a conversation during the lunch. The men are located at the entrance of a small city lane and I would think they have very little use for the traffic lollipop as there simply is very little traffic entering that street.

Bike Taxi MG_6411
First I saw this bike taxi cyclist trying hard to keep up with traffic. Then I saw his smiling face and the reason why he was smiling.

Cute girl texting MG_6406
A fairly simple portrait of a cute girl texting someone on a mobile phone. I liked her hand closed like that near her mouth as if she was concerned with what she was either writing or reading.

Trying to talk MG_6403
I can identify with this man - sometimes it is impossible to have a conversation on your mobile phone over the city noises. I am not sure if I would put my finger in the ear quite like that and eat an apple too.

Kawasaki MG_6408
I know absolutely nothing about motorbikes but this Kawasaki seemed to ooze style reminiscent to that of Harley Davidson bikes.

Benz 1912 MG_6395-41-41
This vintage, 1912 Benz cabriolet, according to its owner, is the only example of this particular model in the world. The car was designed and manufactured by the inventor of gasoline combustion engine and first commercial manufacturer of cars - Karl Benz. It clearly features laurels logo used on Benz & Cie vehicles after 1909.
Do not confuse the Benz make with Mercedes-Benz, which as a company, was created 14 years later.
