The third day there dawned bright and clear, with a cruise ship anchored at the Passenger Terminal on Circular Quay: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200114-454.jpg.html We went for a walk around Circular Quay and saw people busy relaxing frantically on their smartphones: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200112-271.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200114-561.jpg.html We caught a ferry and went to see Manly Beach, both to see the ravishingly beautiful harbour, and to take in at least one of Sydney's legendary beaches: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200114-491.jpg.html Then, on our return, we went to see The Museum of Contemporary Art, conveniently located on Circular Quay. I love museums, both for the art, which always stimulates new ideas to apply in photography and teaches composition as well as light; more so as a place to photograph people, who are generally too engrossed to bother very much on what I was doing: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200114-523.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200114-524.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200114-529.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200114-532.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200114-548.jpg.html The next day, we made our way to the Art Gallery of New South Wales, conveniently located across the Botanical Gardens from our hotel: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200115-578.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200115-585.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200115-594.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200115-597.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200115-602.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200115-614.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200115-636.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/jayanand/auatralia/sydney/Australia-20200115-661.jpg.html Please see LARGE Comments and criticism, as ever, welcome Cheers Jayanand
