Critique Welcomed Visit to Floriade

[Stevenson Gawen]

Last Friday I spent an evening at the annual Floriade event in Canberra. It's basically a Spring festival, centered around lots of tulips and floral displays, held in Commonwealth Park in the center of the city.

I didn't really feel in the mood for photographing the flowers, and ended up shooting pretty much street - of some description.
Haven't finished 'fishing' out the better ones yet but thought I'd post a few here.
I'm not particularly impressed with my efforts, although a few are kind of ok!

Great set. I particularly like no4, the silhouettes against the evening sky.

Thanks Ralph - I like that one too!

No.3 on the first set has me coming back, there's a narrative to my mind in there, same with no.3 on the second set- something about people framed from a distance and isolated in the scene has me fascinated

Thanks Wes! Is it just me or does the first one you mentioned look a little like Indiana Jones?

Yup and a touch of wolf creek vibes coming from him too...
