@Dimitrios: That's a lucky number! It's a very difficult technique to master! Thanks D!

Interesting with the mike at the end of his didgeridoo.. Is he busking? or because of the APEC has been hired for the tourists sort-of-thing? Great shot!! I'm really enjoying this Sydney series Sidonie! It's great to see the city again.

@amy: Thanks Amy - no, this is a detail (partial crop) of a larger shot which shows he is a member of a trio of buskers installed at the ferry wharves where they play for the crowds, and sell their CDs. Nothing to do with APEC.

Behrooz from Tehran, Iran

Wow, I know didgeridoo from Yanni's 98 concert. It sounds really strange. A fine shot, Sidonie!

Well captured showing much local colour and character. There is an attractive vertical motif too provided by the railings and the plastic cages.

Tradition et modernisme. Les vieilles traditions n'ont pas oublié de s'adapter aux techniques modernes de sonorisation !

@Henri Rabagny: Et ca donne une sonorite tres riche.

Fliss from Melbourne Beach, United States

I saw a guy in Jan of this year playing the didgeridoo in Circular Quay when I flew back home (I am an expat in Florida)... I was glad that my husband (an American) could see some of our 'culture' even if he was busking but he was good... oh how I miss home (Newcastle, NSW)

@Fliss: Homesick, eh? Never mind, Florida must be an exciting change!
