Cooling Down by Leanne Lindsay
Sydney Sizzles, But “Cooling Down” Offers a Moment of Bliss. Sydney’s notorious heat turned the afternoon into a furnace. People were like wilting flowers, desperately seeking any sliver of shade. Every crowded cafe terrace boasted misters working tirelessly to battle the sun’s fury. As I strolled along the Opera House’s covered walkway, a different kind of scene unfolded before me. Sunlight, like a celestial spotlight, sliced through the swirling mist, painting the faces of those seeking refuge beneath its refreshing veil. Their silhouettes were haloed in a soft glow, creating an almost dreamlike atmosphere. In the midst of the stifling heat, this corner offered a brief respite, a moment of captivating calm.
Instinctually, I knew this had to be captured. With a click of the camera, I froze that fleeting moment in time, transforming the scorching Sydney afternoon into a timeless tableau of relief and sun-dappled serenity. “Cooling Down” became more than just a photo; it was a story whispered in light and mist, a testament to the simple joy of finding solace in the most unexpected places.

Born in Adelaide in 1962, Leanne Lindsay’s family moved to Sydney when she was 12 years old. She was gifted her first camera for her 21st birthday but a break-in saw her precious camera stolen just 3 years later. It was only in her late 50s she was able to afford to replace it and now in her 60s she has discovered a passion that was sadly lost many years ago. She now photographs families and newborns but enjoys architectural photography and landscapes in particular.
