Being a landscape person you could imagine how hard it was this week to come up with a face… I have no actual faces as such but then thought about my trip to Sydney, there was a face or two I could use that was a bit out of the ordinary. Not the best shot as I was on a ferry and the light was fading BUT still a face.
Luna Park is an iconic landmark on the foreshores of Sydney Harbour on the north side just a smidge over from the Harbour Bridge. It has been operating since 1935, but there was a time that it closed for a time after a tragic accident but hasn’t looked back since then putting in place a number of safety procedures.
For more photos of this challenge head over to Eds Sunday Stills. It will be interesting!
That face is perfect for this theme. Great shot.

Thanks Francesca, I would have liked to have been around more to get the full face but we docked there so couldn’t get the right angle. Thanks for commenting 🙂

Yes it is a bit weird isn’t it. I guess I am used to seeing it as a landmark in Sydney but to others it might be a little “unforgettable” 🙂

I took a similar shot a couple of weeks ago but it wasn’t as good as yours. Great take on the challenge. I had no difficulty in finding faces for mine but didn’t blog it until today. 🙂

Mine was a bit shaky being on the ferry but strangely enough I should be careful what I wish for. I thought I want to go back, get off the ferry and do another shot…. well I’m off to Sydney today with my sister somewhat unexpectedly so might try it again.

Fantastic capture, despite the fading light and moving ferry, and great take on a “face” challenge! I think the composition is perfect – love the off-angle of the face; not having the whole toothy grin doesn’t detract at all – we know it’s there 🙂

Thanks again Stacy. I have to admit I was annoyed not seeing the whole face. You’ve made me feel better about it now though 🙂 Thanks.
