Lunch in an alley

Lunch in an alley MG_6535

One could be forgiven for thinking a scene like that would have been photographed somewhere in Europe in one of the older towns. It has all the attributes: narrow street, small cafe with people having good time over lunch and to complete the scene a number of scooters parked near by. No it is not Italy, it is center of Sydney.
For some reason in last few days I have found quite a few places like that. This city is full of surprises.

Another street style portrait done from very close. I have actually crossed the road between the cars while they were stopped under red light to get the feeling of proximity in this capture. This photo was taken in the afternoon with many strong light reflections. Look at her face - the girl is concentrating on riding the scooter so much she has not seen me take the photograph from less then a meter away.

Express Yourself

After stuffing rather badly my last post I’ve selected this rather easy to digest photograph of two extremes on the road. On one side there is top of the range BMW luxury car and on another a lady on what seems to be one of the smallest scooters I’ve ever seen on public roads.

Woman on a scooter

This young woman was riding a scooter in her tongs. OK, so the scooters are the latest trend and they are environmentally friendly comparing to cars but some basic safety rules still apply. Please wear proper shoes while on any bike!
