Out and about in the city

Here are some photos I’ve taken with my new camera. They’re nothing particularly exciting, but taking them has given me a chance to play around with the camera and its settings.
Wide angle
Walking by platform 1 on a sunny day:
Photo of a suburban train station platform taken from the level of the platform floor. Across from the track are are row of tall trees. A sign on the platform tells you this is platform 1 at Gowrie Railway Station.
Burst mode
Pair of pushy seagulls at Federation Square:
Photo of two seagulls, walking forward side-by-side, eyeing something off camera.
Low angle
Watching a movie at Federation Square:
Photo of two people sitting in foldable deck chairs watching a movie being shown on a large screen in a public square. Behind the funky, off-angle building on which the screen is mounted you can see the tall buildings of the city centre.
Zoom
Letting the world pass them by:
Black and white photo of a couple taken through a gap in the trees. The couple are sitting on a park bench facing a river, while a cyclist crosses the walking/cycling path behind them.
