The 17.5m high Christmas Tree in Melbourne’s Federation Square, opposite Flinders Street Station.

An interesting counterpoint to the daytime photo from a similar vantage point at the Melbourne Arts Centre. From left to right we have: the dome of Flinders Street Station, St Paul’s Cathedral spires, the gothic revival 196 Flinders Street, and Federation Square appears to sit on Princes Bridge.

The Flinders Street / Swanston Street corner of the CBD caught from the Art Centre looking over the Yarra River. The dome of Flinders Street Station peaks out from behind the trees. St Paul’s Cathedral spires tower over the corner, followed by the gothic revival 196 Flinders Street – once home to the Metropolitan Gas Company, now Torrens University Melbourne campus. While Federation Square appears to sit on Princes Bridge from this angle.

The Victorian Government backed Melbourne Bike Share scheme ran from 2009 until 2019. Love the repetition of the form of the bikes, and their shadows, at the bike station at Federation Square.
