Not Reading Poetry by Leanne LindsayNot Reading Poetry by Leanne Lindsay
This day I dedicated to taking some street photographs and one of my favourite places to go to watch people is the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney. I found an installation I was intrigued with and placed myself as inconspicuously as possible, in the corner, watching people and waiting for something interesting to happen. I waited patiently for a while - maybe 1/2 an hour but nothing was happening. While waiting, I decided on a different approach and, not wanting to take a boring photo, decided to take a photo where the art installation was in focus but the people walking past were blurred. I set up my camera to take the shot I envisioned. I noticed this couple walking around, not really paying attention to the art and decided that if they walked past this artwork, I would take the photo. After some time, they walked past the art installation and as I had predicted, they didn't stop to contemplate the artwork, but walked straight past it. That's when I took the shot. It came out exactly as I had envisioned.

Luna Park Sydney is an historic theme park on Sydney's spectacular Sydney Harbour, frequented for generations just for fun. On this day, I had gone there to take some street photography photos as you can usually find some interesting characters there. This clown caught my attention - she has such a lovely, happy smile, so I asked her if I could take her photo while she spun her hula hoop. Of course, she said 'Yes'.

My husband surprised me with the most stunning bouquet this particular afternoon! Gerberas filled the vase with bursts of color, and I knew I had to capture their beauty and I can't resist a little creative challenge!
Instead of the traditional vase shot, I decided to deconstruct the arrangement and play with individual blooms. Soft afternoon light streamed through the window, casting a soft glow on the delicate petals. I arranged them on a simple white background, letting the vibrant colors take center stage.
Focusing on individual flowers allowed me to capture the intricate details. It was a fun and creative way to appreciate the beauty of these blooms.
