130207_172219_2070180 Know No Boundaries (Thu 07 Feb 13)

Pitt St Mall, Sydney CBD, NSW

Not the greatest shot, as I was shooting from a glass walled walkway above Pitt St Mall on a Thursday evening and got some back reflection on the glass, notably on the guy on the left.

Their performance was, on the other hand, spectacular and I regret that I caught only the last few minutes of it. These guys were showing astonishing athleticism, which is why I ended up opting to keep the "Know No Boundaries" ad in the top right corner (which is actually for a local newspaper) in the frame. (That and the fact that the attention of the audience is as important an element of the shot as the frozen moment of the performers themselves.) There would have been a lot of good shots to be had from this performance but alas I wasn't in position to get them.

And I can even forgive them for the fact that their second last performance was done to that rather overworked little ditty "Gangham Style". (The fact that Psy has had over a billion views and my channel is yet to hit 6 thousand has nothing to do with that. No, seriously, I mean that. More or less. I didn't and still don't hate the song, but could do with a break from it.)

They've certainly attracted quite an audience.
