I spent some time in Newtown a few weeks ago, only for a quick stopover. It's certainly a mixed bag when it came to the locals.

I liked this photo as it had a few things going on in it, mainly with the mum chasing her daughter in the background while the other two couples were taking a lazy stroll.

This guy was harmless and his personality was just plain funny.

I quite like the #2. Sense of urgency on one half and calm and cool on the other!

#4 is hilarious! Quintisential Newtown.

Living in a small rural community makes it easy to forget the diversity of urban life, these images are a nice reminder, thanks :)

not really rocking my world to be honest, it does not have that same feel (in terms of compisition) to some of your previous work, maybe a tighter crop to get the viewer close to the main subjects?

#3 i like, but found myself windering about teh customer on the RHS, maybe compsed alittle to the right?

#4 is hilarious! Quintisential Newtown.


lol, yep, its great to live in this area, 90% of people would not even look twice at that...

Heh - that guy only cross-dresses when he has gotten his fix. When he's looking, he dresses straight (friend who is a social worker told me about this).
