Street Scapes - Sydney 2018





I began taking photos with my phone of street-scapes in 2018, inspired by the obscure photographer, Vivian Maier (see my post on her), who took random street shots in the 1950's with no one realising she was taking a shot and no one seeing any of her photos until long after she had died.



Similar concept. It may look ordinary now but what it may look like to people in 50 years time?  The aim was to reach 100. I put this video together not long after. I can't recall how many of the 100 made it in.
Hope you enjoy it. A little snapshot in time. Pre-Corona.






Featuring Inner Sydney including Surry Hills, Darlinghurst, the City, Circular Quay, Ashfield, Summer Hill, Burwood, Dulwich Hill and more.



Top 10 films of 2018




I've chosen films based on the success of their intent, no matter the genre, originality and entertainment value. Most still have flaws, (such as the quietest baby on earth in A Quiet Place), but overall delivered the goods.

NB: I missed Bohemian Rhapsody which I suspect it may make the Top 10 but alas, I cannot include it. (Having seen it now, I would put it approx. No. 5).


Emily Blunt in A Quiet Place (2018)
Ten

Julia Ormond, Rachael Taylor, and Angourie Rice in Ladies in Black (2018)
Nine


Natalie Portman, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tuva Novotny, Gina Rodriguez, and Tessa Thompson in Annihilation (2018)
Eight



Elsie Fisher in Eighth Grade (2018)
Seven



Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga in A Star Is Born (2018)

Johnny Flynn and Jessie Buckley in Beast (2017)
