In the city

Photos taken in Melbourne, Australia

I was in the city a few weeks ago. Christmas deco was still all over town… Starry sky for Skywatch

Melbourne GPO © Evelyn Howard 2011

The Melbourne GPO dates back to mid-1800. It was a postal hall for a long time, but now it is a retail centre. I will take more photos when I am there next.

Outside the Melbourne GPO. I don’t know what this sculpture is about, but lots of people sit on it to get photographed.

A door securely padlocked in Melbourne’s Chinatown…

Hope you are having a nice week.

Wow.... That's a giant purse!
Hang on, it also looks like a giant clam with two pearls! Ha ha...

Fun photos - I think the sculpture is a chain purse? I love all the stars, I wonder how long it takes them to put that up each season?

Stars,stripes,red,white and blue. When I put all these pictures together I'm reminded of the American flag. :)

Nice shots! The top and bottom ones are my favs.

I love that huge coin purse sculpture! And the stars! Wonderful!

I love the way you use diagonal composition. Very clever. I think the sculpture that people sit on to have their pictures taken is a compact.

Creative set, Evelyn. The one in the middle looks a lot like a purse I have.
