Dove Pink Star Walk, Sydney 2008

By Robert James Wallace

‘The third annual Dove Pink Star Walk took place on the evening of Saturday 25 October 2008, in Sydney, Australia,’ writes photographer Robert Wallace. ‘The event was held in aid of the National Breast Cancer Foundation and consisted of a five-kilometre fun walk to raise funds for research into breast cancer prevention and cure. The event attracted 10,000 participants who walked from Government House in the Royal Botanic Garden, past the Opera House and Circular Quay, to the finish line in Darling Harbour. All walkers were encouraged to wear pink-coloured clothes, such as a T-shirt and hat, or even a decorated pink bra. The special guest entertainer on the evening, Brian McFadden, performed two songs from his album Set in Stone at the start of the walk on a stage bathed in vibrant pink lighting.’
