Hi Chrome. Yes, the tunnel is very clean - I think the station has been given a once over. It's usually a bit grimy looking. There's plenty of lichen in the city, especially on old buildings. Though I think it's a different sort of lichen to the type you featured recently.
Hey db. I was quite pleased with how the walkway one turned out. I like it when a photo of something everyday nad unremarkable turns into a nice image.
I did see that about the Rectangle Stadium and I'm quite pleased because it sounds great and I will be able to see it from my window. A few months back I saw a small group of coloured lights on it in a hexagonal shape (maybe testing?)and that looked pretty cool. It's really taking shape now. Don't know what it's like inside, but I love the shape.
* 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.
Love the cloud picture!
ReplyDeleteThat was a sad and beautiful weekend series from the town. Moody skies, surprisingly clean tunnel and I´m so glad to see some urban lichen there!
ReplyDeleteNice B+W. I like the walkway one. Almost derilict hospital look about it.
ReplyDeleteDid you see they are going to put flashing lights in the bio-dome of the new stadium being constructed near you?
Hi SX3. Thanks. I'm a bit of a cloudaholic.
