I found my trip to the IFR a bit un-productive, photographically. I just couldn't get into the groove, hardly took any photos at the main events, and didn't do my usual exploring-the-city-with-camera. Something about all those crowds spooked me. I lost my mojo.
I'm sorry to hear that.
I had the opposite experience. I wasn't expecting to take any photos - I was out cycling in the morning, and was very tired that day. I went to the photowalk thinking I'll be lucky to get one shot - it was more an opportunity to catch up with friends.
I ended up with some photos I really liked.

Spotted at Pitt St mall:

Hello sailor:
This looks like he is taking a self portrait but he isn't - I am amazed the reflection on the marble came out so well:
Martin Place was actually really busy, but the photo makes it look like he is alone:
