State Library of Victoria, Melbourne

Posted by kiwisa (North Shore, New Zealand) on 5 November 2009 in Architecture and Portfolio.

A photo from one of many glorious trips to Melbourne. The Library building in the city with the perfect balance and symmetry of a classical design. The pedimented Corinthian portico highlighted in the late afternoon sunlight.

Thank you for viewing my photos. I love receiving comments and critiques. I am constantly inspired by all the wonderful photographers on 3minus, so although I may not always thank you, I will visit your photo page and leave a comment.

Good evening Kiwisa,
The architecture is very interesting. I like it too, as the sun, everything can appear in a golden glow. They have presented the host very well. Thank you for your comment on my web page. Best regards Christel
