Man in white shirt
This is yet again a very simple photograph of Sydney people during lunchtime. What drew my attention here that most of the people were dressed in dark clothing and were in the shadow, while the man sitting on the bench only in white shirt seemed to attract most of the sunlight.

Girls on steps
I was going back to work from my daily walk when I have noticed these two Asian girls on a set of stairs. With the deep shadow and bright sunlight the stars created a very strange effect: you could not assert if they were convex or concave.

Praying Shadow MG_5651
A group of people was admiring the work of a popular pavement artist. A sign on the side of the painting says he has so far spend 110 days on this particular creation.
What brought my attention to this scene was not his work, which I see often by the “praying shadow” cast onto his canvas.

3PM Lamp Shadow
A very hot Sunday. At 3PM the temperature reaches “only” 32°C but it feels much hotter. The weather bureau is forecasting evening thunderstorm and for once I think they may be right.
The photograph captures a lamp and its shadow cast on timber grill. I have presented this in black and white as what drew my attention to this view was the high contrast between the lamp and its shadow.

Seagull Shadow
When photographing birds in flight the most challenging task is to keep them in focus while tracking them in the flight path. A bit of patience and practice will allow photographers to get reasonable results. Digital photography has introduced something that birders loath – the shutter release delay.
Owners of prosumer grade cameras not only have to track the bird via electronic viewfinder with low refresh rate, they also have to anticipate the lapsed time between the shutter release and the actual photograph. Admittedly recent cameras are quite good in this department and owners of digital SLR cameras don’t really have a problem at all.
The photograph attached to this article was taken with Canon dSLR and Sigma 70-200 lens using AI-Servo focusing mechanism. I must admit the amazing shadow was an added and surprising bonus for what I considered was a practice shot.
