[Photo walk] Along Harbour Esplanade, Docklands

I took a walk along Harbour Esplanade in Docklands on my way home from work. It was a grey, overcast day, but I think I got a couple of good photos.

Meeting rooms with a view

Photo of a section of a colourful office building that’s jutting out from the main building. This six storey section, which itself is two storeys above ground level, has floor-to-ceiling windows on all three sides. Through the windows you can make out office tables and chairs arranged inside the rooms. The photo is taken on an overcast day, with most of the sky full of grey clouds and only one patch of blue sky peeking through.

Marvel Stadium from Harbour Esplanade

Photo of a stadium with a large sign on it that reads ‘Marvel Stadium’. The stadium is next to a harbour, and the photo is taken from a walkway along one side of this harbour. In the foreground is a grid of several old, wooden, white-tipped pillars sticking out from the water.

Reflection of a bright sky on an overcast day

Photo of an office building wrapped in floor-to-ceiling windows. The photo is taken on a grey, completely overcast day. However, there is a patch of blue sky peeking out from behind the clouds. This patch is behind the photographer and you can see its bright reflection on the windows of the glass-covered building that’s in the frame of the photo.

Geelong Flyer catamaran ferry parked at its Docklands terminal

Head-on photo of a 35m wave piercing catamaran ferry (Incat Hull 095) parked at its berth at the Port Phillip Docklands Terminal in Melbourne, Australia. This large ferry has two slender hulls connected by a bridging section, which is where all the passengers sit.

This large ferry has two slender hulls connected by a bridging section, which is where all the passengers sit. In the background of the photo is the Bolte Bridge. This is a large, twin cantilever road bridge with two 140m tall towers that hold up the roadway that spans the width of the Yarra River and Victoria Harbour.

Blue buildings by Docklands Harbour

Photo of several residential towers of varying heights (ranging from four to over twenty stories), most of which have blue-tinted, floor-to-ceiling windows. The photo is taken on an overcast day, but the various shades of blue are still shining through despite the flat light. In the foreground of the photo is a grid of several old, wooden, white-tipped pillars sticking out from the water.

Reflections of a photographer

Photo of a man taking a photo of his reflection in a large, dirty window. The man, who can’t be seen very clearly, is wearing dark clothes, white sneakers, and dark driver’s cap. The man is looking down at the camera that he is holding just below chest height. The man is standing in a commercial area, with several buildings around him – including one that is under construction.

Looking up along the Melbourne Water building

Photo taken looking upwards next to a glass office building. The outside of the building is decorated with several metal shade-plates with various sized holes drilled through them. These are attached using metal supports and wires. Above the building is a grey, overcast sky with bits of blue sky peeking out from between the clouds.
