27˚C, blue skies, a light breeze, the lazy lap of harbour waves, saturated colour of new growth, warmth and life… a Sydneyphile’s quintessential 25th December. In Britain it’s sleeping bags and log fires, snow-settled window ledges and back lane toboggan races. In Sydney it’s boardshorts, sunnies, snags and santa hats as eskies and umbrellas line the coastal shores casualising (definitely my word) a tradition that says thank you for modifying me to suit your polar opposite existence.
I’ll keep today brief and let the images of the day tell the story. Rather than exposing my celebratory counterparts to un-release signed online portraiture I instead briefed myself to capturing what I love… damn good food in excess and abundance, beautiful filtered light, shared experience and almost sinking my lens into Eaton Mess to capture it’s dessertfulness.
Happy Christmas, enjoy.

Wow, you got these up quickly, I’m impressed. I also think that despite my expensive accessories you still take much better photos than me, so it’s not all about the camera and the lens. Look forward to reading/seeing more of your glomadic experiences.
A post-Christmas stomach stuffed upload it was Vicky… thanks for taking the time to have a squiz (type correction not liking ‘squiz’). Your new lens is the ultimate long distance get in your subjects pants add-on. Enjoy and look forward to seeing your cook and shoots in 2011. x
