Jacarandas in Bloom

By lucky chance while jogging in Woolloomooloo, a colourful suburb of Sydney, I turned around and saw this fantastic view of blooming Jacaranda trees with Sydney Tower on the background. I have not had a camera with me at the time (yeah, not that dedicated) so I knew I had to return. In a light of setting sun the street has changed quite a bit. The Old Fitzroy Hotel was getting noisier, patrons were sipping cold pints on the veranda, a female bar worker on a smoke break was sharing a story to someone “I worked long enough and seen 4 owners of this bar…” Everyone were enjoying themselves and keeping an eye on a performance of a street photographer dodging cars and shooting pictures of Friday’s traffic. In few minutes view has proven to be good enough and there was a crowd blocking the street and taking photographs with whatever-camera-they-had. Taxi drivers were patient, Friday night was just starting and it was a great start.
