Sydney CBD, near Martin Place, Wynyard light rail station, as dusk falls

22 March 2025

George Street in Sydney CBD at dusk. Light rail tracks run down the centre. On either side, there are tall buildings, some with illuminated windows. The General Post Office building is on the left, featuring a clock. People stroll along the sidewalks, and streetlights illuminate the scene against a darkening sky.

Sydney’s CBD is certainly picturesque in the evening. This picture was taken on a Friday evening, near Martin Place, and the Wynyard light rail station, hence the rail tracks.

Surry Hills Village, Sydney, during construction works, March 2022

20 March 2025

A construction site is illuminated at night, featuring scaffolding, cranes, and a yellow worker cage. The surrounding area is dark, highlighting the structure's framework and construction equipment.

Needless to say the scene today looks somewhat different. This photo of what is now the Surry Hills Village, in the eastern suburbs of Sydney, was taken about three years ago.

The lens flare effect is probably as a result of the perspex cover on the viewing window on one of the walls bordering the then construction site.

A room without a view, at an old cottage

11 March 2025

A weathered building wall with a yellow-framed window, with paint peeling from both, and some utility pipes, set under a cloudy grey sky.

The weather’s not much to speak of, so maybe there’s no point being able to see what’s happening outside anyway.

Sydney Harbour Bridge seen from Kirribilli

1 March 2025

A residential street featuring a historic house with a sloped roof and tall trees, leading up to Sydney Harbour Bridge in the background. The sky is partly cloudy, and sunlight creates a warm glow. Several cars are parked nearby.

A not so common view of Sydney Harbour Bridge, as seen from the nearby suburb of Kirribilli. I’d taken a wrong turn while visiting the area several weeks ago, and while trying to get my bearings, looked up and saw the bridge poking over the top of the trees.
