The Thrill of the Ride by Leanne Lindsay
The vibrant atmosphere of Luna Park Sydney buzzed around me. Drawn to the thrilling section of the park, I found myself captivated by a particular ride. This contraption defied gravity, whirling riders, flying through the air, their legs flung wide. Intrigued, I captured a black and white image from below. The riders, silhouetted against the sky, let out joyous cries that echoed through the park. Their unrestrained expressions mirrored the exhilaration of the ride. While the experience undoubtedly offered a surge of adrenaline, I found a curious sense of serenity observing their uninhibited joy. Perhaps it was the raw display of human experience, or the comfort of knowing my own feet were planted firmly on the ground. Regardless, capturing this scene in black and white proved just as thrilling as any ride, a testament to the captivating energy found within Luna Park.

Born in Adelaide in 1962, Leanne Lindsay’s family moved to Sydney when she was 12 years old. She was gifted her first camera for her 21st birthday but a break-in saw her precious camera stolen just 3 years later. It was only in her late 50s she was able to afford to replace it and now in her 60s she has discovered a passion that was sadly lost many years ago. She now photographs families and newborns but enjoys architectural photography and landscapes in particular.
