About The cone-shaped, metal-framed glass ceiling of an inner-city Melbourne shopping centre.

The brick chimney is part of an old gunpowder factory that was on the site, and was not permitted to be demolished. The developers of the shopping centre had to construct the shopping centre around the factory, which has now been converted into shops, as well. Consequently, the chimney had to be accommodated within the shopping centre....hence the design of the ceiling.

NOW we're talkin' Phil. This has incredible symmetry and such an awesome vanishing point. SCORE!

Hey, Paul, thanks!

This type of architecture/design appeals to me...the moment I saw it, I felt it was waiting to be captured.

I dread to think of what the hundreds of shoppers around me must have thought, when they saw me leaning, contorting, stretching and squatting to get the various angles that I captured this image from. Thank goodness I was 800kms away from home, and nobody knew me. :) My wife and daughters stayed well away.....shopping. :) They disowned me for an hour or so. It didn't matter to me...I was in my element..in a different world as I tried to capture the scene from as many angles as possible. :)

I'm just about to upload another version. :)

Cheers

Phil
