Cooling Down by Leanne LindsayCooling 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.

With my Mirrorless camera in hand and my old DSLR in theirs, I was their patient photography coach, but these tuxedoed dynamos were the true stars. Unlike their larger cousins, these pint-sized swimmers seemed to defy gravity. Their wings propelled them through the water with incredible speed and grace, like tiny rockets dancing and soaring through the depths.
