There's something about seeing this iconic landmark in black and white that makes it feel even more timeless, don't you think? I took this photograph, in black and white, one day when I was in the city for some street photography. I can't help myself - once I get to the Sydney Harbour Bridge, I have to photograph it from every angle and from every perspective. It doesn't matter how many photographs I have of this magnificent bridge I always need more.

James Craig -150 Years by Leanne Lindsay

On this day, I had gone into Sydney on the ferry in the hopes of taking some street photographs. On the harbour, in the distance, I could see a boat spraying up water. I didn't take much notice of it but after an hour or so, I started getting curious and paid it more attention. The boat started getting closer and I could see an armada of sail boats of various ages and characters heading towards me. It was then I realised that this parade was to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the James Craig. This magnificent sailing ship was built in Sunderland, England, and launched on 18 February 1874. In her early life James Craig carried cargo far and wide, rounding Cape Horn 23 times. She is Australia's oldest working tall-ship.
