More Circular Quay at Sydney for Sunday Best

 

Since my return from Sydney, the chill of winter has set in, accompanied by mounting demands at work. In the midst of these burdens, I have found solace in revisiting old photographs from the journey—each image a portal that revives the vivid impressions of my time there. Among them, scenes of Circular Quay stir particular nostalgia. Once the site of Sydney’s first European landing in 1788, this historic harbour has transformed over the centuries from a modest cove into a vibrant nexus of culture and commerce. To linger upon these images is to retrace, in spirit, the footsteps of the past while recalling the quiet splendour of the harbour’s sweeping vistas.

Linking Sunday Best

I recently observed that a fellow photographer and blogger has at last returned to the Instagram scene. He appears to have gained weight and has parted ways with his long-term companion. It seems he has endured a considerable period of personal turmoil, a sentiment reflected not only in his demeanour but also in the manner in which he now edits his photographs. There is a quiet sadness that permeates his work, suggesting deeper emotional undercurrents.
