Many people in Sydney take advantage of the nice weather during lunchtime and go for a run. I have photographed this athletic woman running near a park. I was lucky to photograph her totally airborne.

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.

Wait for me

Wait for me

Wait for me

I have noticed this Asian couple just few minutes before I took this photograph. It was hard not to notice the tall girl in her bright orange dress and pearl white skin. After all this is autumn and most people wear subdued dark coloured clothing.

As they were approaching Town Hall building the man seemed to forget his partner and rushed a bit ahead thus leaving her exposed to the rain. She obviously was not impressed.

They both had biggest laugh when I have shown them the photograph. It is good to come across people who despite the lousy weather can find humour in their own situation.

Wet, empty benches

Wet, empty benches

After the driest May on record with only 1mm of rain Sydney has enjoyed finally some rain with first days of June. City parks, which are usually buzzing with activity during lunchtime, were totally deserted. These wet, empty benches will have to wait for some sun before the usual crowd returns. Everyone resorted to indoor venues for their lunches. The bureau of meteorology is forecasting very heavy rain for next two weeks.

Sun baking in the park

Unseasonably warm weather has brought a lot of people into the Hyde park to catch the warm autumn rays of sun. There was quite a bit of skin showing on the grass all over the park. Those two pretty girls ware sun baking near the fountain.

It’s all in the attitude

Waiting for lunar eclipse - Terrigal, NSW, Australia. Bigger image can be seen here.
While I was waiting for the lunar eclipse the other day the cloud cover was quite heavy and for a moment I thought all my preparations will go in vane. Looking long at these clouds I realised instead of complaining about the weather I should take the advantage of it. This photograph is the result of that observation.

Tim Bailey - Channel 10 Weather Man

Many television stations often broadcast their weather forecast from a location. Channel TEN has selected to use Darling Harbour for today’s evening weather. Their presenter, Tim Baily is quite a popular personality and a small crowd has gathered to watch “making of the weather”. This is one of these unusual situations for a street photographer where at least some of the lighting was done by professionals.
