Lunch in the park
This photograph of people having lunch in the park may not be of Manet’s “Breakfast in the Open Air” pedigree but it seemed to me a nice capture.
Beautiful, sunny day in Sydney even in the middle of our winter can bring nice, low 20C temperatures. A perfect weather for of a bit of park socialising or simply relaxing lunch.

Lunchtime read
In contrast to a post from few days showing men working at a cafe during lunch this young office worker obviously appreciates a bit of break from work. Absorbed by reading a book he seems to be totally unaware of the people in the eatery. Notice, that although he is dressed immaculately in a nice suit and white shirt - he has taken his tie off to make himself more comfortable.

Architecture and people
This photograph of very heavy, angled concrete columns is probably an easily recognisable place for many Sydney based people. If you work or have lunch at Australia Square you probably passed these many times.
The columns create an interesting perspective with their triangular void space, as if they lead to some focal point where people cross from the street to the inner open space of the eateries and offices. It is an impressive, older style architecture, which seems a bit boxy and heavy these days.

Lunchtime work
This windows scene from a local Cafe is quite common. People meeting for lunch to do … more work. My walks through city and photographic “adventures” are deliberate escapes from work, letting me relax and take my mind of work at least for a while. I get some badly needed exercise at the same time. I guess some lunchtime work is unavoidable, but it almost seems pointless to leave the office just to keep working. I think I work better if I have a bit of time to relax in the middle of the day.

Story teller MG_8980
Dressed like a character from a classic Humphrey Bogart movie, sporting a checkered hat, tie and suspenders and smoking rather large cigar this man was telling some story to his charming companion. The story seemed very interesting as you can see from the attention he was receiving from her.

Lunch at table 13
I went today to watch another game of chess in the park. However, instead of photographing the chess players I’ve photographed a couple of men having top time during their lunch. I guess this was a perfect day for an outdoor lunch with almost summery conditions.

Lunchtime Scene
There is something surreal in this scene. A popular Sydney eatery during lunchtime with patrons enjoying their meal. Just meters away a homeless person laying on the pavement in a really disturbing, face down position. I have asked a city ranger to help the man. He said he will call for assistance but it is pointless as the homeless leave the shelter and are back in the streets few minutes later often affected by either drugs or alcohol.
