nice, very nice!
Great angle, we dont often look up, like a tourist... lots to look at in a simple image.
Love the detail of the sky in the windows.
Looks like typical Melbourne Sky

Like it MHD. I think it could work even better if you could find a way to make the grid pattern in the tram wire stand out more.

I really like the contrasts in this image Scott. The blue sky and white clouds, the curves and straight lines and the
modern and old buildings. Great image.
Cheers
John

Scott
this is a brilliant shot with excecptional use of the natural curves in the scene to enhance the power of the image by leading the eye through the elements on view. This is the best image I can recall seeing from you.

if you look at about the 32 floor of that building you might see me sticking my head out

A fine image indeed.
Scott, you've really got some good lines and curve working together here. Great!

This is a wonderful image Scott. The curve seems to segregate the old clock tower from the more
modern buildings on the left. Plus I like how the crossed wire net works on the windows of the Commbank building in the background.

I agree, there is so much which grabs your attention, the curve of the tram line, the straight lines of the office building and then the clouds as well. Hard to find an area to focus on (which is not a criticism
btw 
)
