Photoshoot – Cathedral

Got together with my friend Prab for a great photoshoot at Sydney’s St Mary’s Cathedral. The combination of the formal outfit and the classy nature of the Chinese straightsword just begged for it.

Over 300 pictures were taken, where about half of them were decent. I’ve picked the top 11 for your viewing pleasure. For more photographic greatness, visit his Flickr page and check out his Facebook page!
