Lindesay Christmas Gift Fair

Tis the season...

Its hard to believe that Christmas is only just over 6 weeks away. If you are anything like me, it is easy to be so busy in the lead up to Christmas that you can miss out on the magic of the season. For our last meetup for 2026, we will meet up to check out and photograph the Martin Place Christmas Markets together with the Canopy of Light on Pitt Street in the city. I hope you can join us. James W PS. Bring a tripod if you have one.
