[Photo walk] Melbourne buildings, part 1

Now that I’ve got myself a quality interchangeable lens camera, I’m looking for any excuse to walk around somewhere I can take interesting photos.

So one thing I’ve started to do is walk through the Melbourne central business district every Friday afternoon after work.

Here are some photos of buildings that I took today. I expect I’ll be taking many more building photos in the future, hence the ‘part 1’ in this post’s title :)

Reflections of the city (Docklands, Melbourne)

Photo taken from a higher vantage point of streets, cars, and buildings reflected off the side of a tall, shiny building on a bright sunny day.

Telco base stations at Media House in Melbourne

Photo of three mobile service base stations (that is, antennae) mounted at the top of a white, modernistic building.

Photo looking up from the ground of a very tall, blue-glass covered building. The building has rounded edges and two large curves along its length, making it look somewhat like a fancy water bottle. Next to this building, and much shorter in height, is a colonial-beige coloured building inspired by Art Deco archicture.

Photo looking down the length of a narrow alleyway. At the end of the alleyway is a large, domed building in the classical Renaissance Revival style of architecture from the 1880s.
