This broken umbrella is perhaps not a common sight but the weather forecast is telling us we have another two weeks of continuous rainy day ahead of us.
Jeremy – Photographer in the rain with Nikon
by Ted Szukalski |Today I’ve met a very cool fellow street shooter by the name of Jeremy. We stood on the opposite sides of George Street aiming for some people shots during a torrential rain that swept through Sydney around midday.
While Jeremy was aiming for people with umbrellas I found one with ease – him. These Nikon guys certainly have an advantage. Just look how cool his umbrella is.
Thanks Jeremy – you’ve been a good sport.
Old Woman With A Sun Umbrella
by Ted Szukalski |The old woman with her bright, yellow umbrella looked like some surreal apparition from another time in the middle of busy Sydney mall. She wore a knitted flowery hat and a strange looking coat. Her modern, plastic footwear was at total odds with the rest of the outfit. I have this distinct impression I have photographed her before but I cannot recall the circumstances.
CoastFest 2006
by Ted Szukalski |Few random photographs from CoastFest 2006 – Central Coast Festival of Music, Art and Culture .
Chinese Dancers from Central Coast Chinese Association performing an umbrella dance:

This Indian cook called out: “Hey man with a big camera, why don’t you take a photograph of me?”. Could I refuse an invitation like that?

Diverse style songs and bands with plenty of character where the essence of the festival.

Statuesque Sandra is one of the bellydance teachers from a team called Desert Flame.
