On Cuba Street in the middle of a heavy downpour.
I saw her running across the mall from the money machine and totally thought I had fired the shot too early (possibly a little bit early) and missed her altogether. Film is great for surprises.

I seem to be taking lots of images through windows at the moment…

Another couple of sequence shots from the loaner Canon Demi Half Frame Camera.
They are both off the first roll I put through it where I stuffed up which way to shoot and had to turn the images in Photoshop…Hence the weird light leaks don’t match up…
I think the person in the first one makes the shot… but that’s just me 🙂

Saw this shot on Cuba Street looking through the people doing yoga as a pacifist protest against China…

Just incase you missed it here is an enlargement…

Seen on lower Cuba Street during the Santa parade.
I’m turning into the person who goes to these events to take images of the crowd and not the actual event 🙂

Cuba Street seems to be a good place for a lie down lately even with all the noise from the massive amounts of road works going on.

Is it just me or does this look kinda uncomfortable?

I love the looks from the onlookers 🙂

Not sure what religion they were pushing (when you only have 5 -10 min a day to get some shots you just don’t have time) but I like the way the guys body language is turned for a quick get away.

Another random shot in Cuba Mall.
I like how much is going on in the frame and it takes a couple of looks to see all the detail.

This is one of those shots where you just look down at the viewfinder and there it is
