Every year City of Sydney council hosts the Art and About exhibition in various streets and public spaces around Sydney. One of the most popular exhibitions is Sydney Life which takes over the central walkway of Hyde Park North. Images are blown up to giant bed-sheet size prints and hung between the trees that line the boulevard.
This is the first year I’ve been eligible to enter as you have to be a citizen or permanent resident, so I’ve entered the two images you see here. Hundreds of entries are received and the competition is very stiff but if you don’t have a go you never know.

COCO
Shoppers pass by the bright and colour facade of the Chanel store in Westfield Bondi Junction.

SUN SHAFT
Shafts of sunlight highlight a number of Sydney landmarks against a dark sky; left to right; tip of the Perpetual building, MLC centre, Sydney Tower, Commonwealth Bank, AWA building. Converted using the Magazine filter in the Camera Bag app on iPhone.

AUTUMN LEAF
A single leaf lies on the wet steps outside the Cook & Philip Park Pool.

PEEL
Love the colours on this close up shot of mandarin peel, converted using the Colourcross filter in the Camera Bag app on iPhone.

LUNCH BREAK
Office workers sit around a fountain in the Australia Square complex during their lunch break.

4x3D
There’s a 3D craze happening right now, it’ll pass I’m sure, in the meantime I played with my newest iPhone app, Quad Camera, with these retro 3D glasses.

So that’s month number 3 finished and here are my favourite images from 365:2010 in March:

PINK STAR
Nice little graphic image painted on the front of a store in Surry Hills

SUNDAY MORNING SWIM
When I can on a Sunday morning I visit the Andrew (Boy) Charlton pool in the domain and do a few lengths. The image effect was created using the Hipstamatic app on my iPhone.

UFO
The Hipstamatic app transforms a light fitting at work into a flying saucer.

LUNA LIGHTS
Took this image after a work party over at Luna Park, used the Helga filter from the Camera Bag app to give it a flatter tonal quality and make the lights stand out.

SILVER SCULPTURE
Another image from a visit to Boy Charlton where this sculpture features on the harbour shoreline. Converted using the PSMobile app.
