Patterns galore deep inside Sydney’s Queen Victoria Building.
65th birthday...a perfect reason to return to the Continent, dust off my German, and take a hike.

This is such a nice inside take. And for a moment I thought it looked familiar. It’s QVB. Thanks for reminding me of my school time in Sydney

Oh, boy. Now I’m miffed that I didn’t post something else your photo reminds me of…but on the other hand, NICE PICTURE!
hahaha! OK … and thanks!
Pretty floor pattern.
I want that in my house!
My daughter worked on the top floor of QVB.. This is a lovely shot. Thank you.
Wow, that is so cool, and what a coincidence! I love that building! It’s just has style! It’s not impersonal or glitzy like newer shopping centers. It’s classic!

I hate that view! Not cos of the patterns, because of my fear of heights. The railings at the QVB don’t really instill a sense of security.
hey drew … you’re right, as I recall, I didn’t have a lot of confidence in the QVB railings.
we’ve talked about our mutual fear of heights, but as you’ve seen from some of my previous posts, something drives me to lean over the edge to get that primo shot. maybe i should ask my therapist about that?
Sometimes, the motivation to do something really cool overrides that fear. I don’t think it’s time to talk to your therapist about your desire to die, quite yet.
hmmm … let me jot that one down … i’ve got a laundry list.
Interesting angle – and a stunning photo.
Thanks, Viveka! There’s a lot to look at here!
A beautiful interior shot Stephen! Perfect for the challenge.
Thanks Madhu! Been waiting to bust that one out for a while!
Wow, that is a really cool view! Such interesting patterns and layers.
Hi Fergiemoto … and thanks. The Queen Victoria Building was built in 1898, so the architecture is pretty classic too.
