Yesterday the search continued for the 'perfect' chair for my new desk, and yes..success!! On the way home I stopped at
Hyde Park, mainly to see if I could get a few shots of the Black Swans, but not a one to be found! I did however on the way back to the car see a fantastic opportunity to 'shoot the shooter'. I don't think this was a real wedding, I got the feeling it was some sort of promo shoot. You'll see in this sequence of shots that he was so busy snapping that he didn't realize he was right on the edge of the drop into the lake. I was ready for THAT shot! As I passed, I was just in time to see the 'bride' hike up her beautiful dress and reveal that she was wearing....thongs! Comfy, but definitely not bridal!
I looked back after I'd passed to see the 'couple' relaxing and the photographer scouting around for another location..It doesn't matter when you stop by Hyde Park, it's such good value, you'll always find something going on. Happy Friday.....
Such fun to "shoot the shooter"! What a lovely park for a walk! Hope you have a wonderful day, Grace!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like it was a lovely day there! I hope they were dressy thongs!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if the photographer noticed you. Kinda funny he didn't realize he was so close to the edge. No black swans but you found something interesting to shoot!
ReplyDeleteOh, how fun! I love these! No black swans, but lots of smiles! Enjoy your day, Grace, and get ready for a great weekend!

Marvelous shots! Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteHope your new chair is as comfy as the brides thongs :-).
ReplyDeleteIn the heat you're having, thongs are an option, lol, I'm sure there are very pretty bridal thongs to be had somewhere! Hope you're happy with your nouvelle chaise !
ReplyDeleteI prefer black swans myself......
ReplyDeleteGreat scenario and magnificent images, love the last one, the light and composition was perfect!
ReplyDeleteHa ha, good for the photographer that he didn't fall into the water, but that would have been a fun photo.
ReplyDeleteThe photo wedding. They have already had the proper wedding.
ReplyDeletemust be a good time for weddings there. how did the cake turn out? and did you take the chair the 'bride' was posing on for your desk?
ReplyDeleteReminds me of the bridal shoot I watched (and got shots of) at the Central Park carousel .. what kind of chair did you get, nosy blog friends need to know!
ReplyDeleteExcellent. The subject matter is very interesting and the light and colors here are gorgeous. That would have been funny if the shooter had fallen back into the lake...well, maybe not to him, but...
ReplyDeleteI think I'd like Hyde Park a lot!
You made me think of a photo my sister took of her granddaughter when she was in a wedding. She had this gorgeous, frilly dress on and underneath, boots!
ReplyDeleteAmazing weeding photos, very original and creative!
ReplyDeleteI think we have a difference of interpretation here regarding THONGS. I think you mean flip flop type shoes and not the skimpy undergarments that we call thongs here in the US! LOL

Oh Darn..I was waiting for the thong picture. Where is it? Hahahaha..just kidding. The first picture has a profusion of vibrant colors. Really nice. No cricket being played in the park?
ReplyDeleteHa, funny. And re: thongs, in the US they're now called flip-flops, since the other thongs are underwear. I remember when I was visiting my daughter and the weather was still a bit cold in the spring. I told her despite that, I was surprised at the number of girls wearing thongs...she stared at me....and then we both laughed.
ReplyDeletehaha, funny!
ReplyDeletethis park could as well be the public garden in boston. looks a bit similar! and there are also always photoshoots going on, often weddigs...
whoops, the above was with my bf's account... but it was me! :)
ReplyDeleteShoot the shooter is a neat title.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know the word thongs and looked it up. I got a weird translation about some leather underwear.. Not so comfy I think, but there was also an option for flip flops, must be that I think. But I like your photos very much.
ReplyDeletearen't taking photos of a photographer fun! it's interesting to watch how other's get "that shot"! personal preference...no thongs for me!
ReplyDeleteI am so innocent. I did not think of the non Australian meaning of thong.
ReplyDeletetu ne nous dis pas si le photographe est tombé dans l'eau
ReplyDeleteFunny sequence, interesting bench!
ReplyDeletethat was a fun series!!
ReplyDeleteFabulous shots Grace and such a beautiful park to visit.
