Hi Andrew. I saw it a couple of times back in summer but I didn't realise it was still being lit up at night. I thought it was just a temporary arty installation type thing. Shame we can't do something to camouflage it during the day too.
Hey db. It changes colours too - blue, red, purple and pink also. I could take a daytime shot for comparison, if I can bear to post such an ugly photo.
* It has a lane named after rock band AC/DC and a swimming pool named after a Prime Minister who is believed to have drowned at sea
* Its vibrant multiculturalism
* Royal Botanic Gardens.
* Shady Caroline Street in South Yarra
* The disco balls hanging above Rankins Lane in the city
* The domed reading room of the State Library.
* The eucalyptus trees and old lamps beside the river near Fed Square.
* The huge mural spanning the length of the side wall of Dimmey's discount department store in Green Street Richmond
* The laneways, especially Degraves Street and Centre Place.
* The old terrace houses in the inner suburbs.
* The Royal and Block Arcades.
* The street art (commissioned and otherwise).
* The Victorian architecture, especially the interior of 333 Collins Street, the Olderfleet Building and the Melbourne Safe Deposit Building on Queen Street
* The view of the city at night from the Swan Street Bridge.
* The Windsor end of Chapel Street
* There's always a festival or major event happening.
Wow, I have not noticed this, even tonight when we were in that exact spot.

ReplyDeleteFL - You should do a day shot from teh same location as a comparison. It looks great with the green.

ReplyDeletethis is really cool! I love the colors, lights and shadows. You've turned this building into a graphic design.
ReplyDeleteNice.
They have really done some electric light magic there.
ReplyDeleteMagic photo!
