The Temple of the Tooth - Kandy, Sri Lanka


I thought I'd get to the temple early in the morning and photograph it's exterior before pilgrims and tourists started arriving. I was surprised when I had issues finding parking after a 5.00am start! It was impossible to compose a shot of the building without including people so I had no choice but to come up with a composition that included pilgrims.

Gondolier - Venice, Italy


Whilst wandering around the back streets of Venice we came across this gondolier taking a break from the tourists and reading the papers.

The Opera House - Sydney, Australia


Visited the Opera House one evening after a shower of rain, hoping to photograph it without too many tourists walking in and out of my frame. I got lucky as there were only a few around. I setup the tripod in the forecourt very close to the building and managed to shoot this. I thought it was slightly different to the usual shots you see of the Opera House so was quite happy with it.
