Federation Bells

Back in Melbourne... Just down from Federation Square and right next to the artwork "angel". We weren't there to hear them chime but I imagine it would have been fantastic.

Thanks for the lovely comments on my silly selfie from yesterday :) and as always, thanks for stopping by.

Great shot - I need to check it out next time I'm in Melbourne.

[Peter Grave]

Nice shot Sheralee. Great storm tonight but not for us Gone to the south of us again !!

[Nicole Campbell]

Is this new in Melbourne? I haven 't seen it before.

[Babs]

Fabulous shot, I would to hear them.

[Graham Thresher]

A fantastic compositition with the reflections.

[Sheralee S]

@peterlgrave I know Peter... I was hopeful, thought at least I might get a lightning shot but not to be!

@nicolecampbell I think they've been there since 2001. If you know where the Angel sculpture is you go up a set of stairs and they are there. They play at certain times through the day.

@bella_ss thanks for the info, I will need to visit next time I am in Melbourne

[Sheralee S]

@leestevo Have fun Lee-Ann... at the moment all the trams in the main city area are free, they were a little crowded at times though.

Great shot!

[Tammy]

What a neat shot! I love the beautiful cloud reflections in the building in the background and the lines of the bells are cool too. I bet they sound beautiful when they do chime!

[Denise (lyndemc)]

Interesting, the bells and the lights (I'm assuming they're light fixtures) have similar shapes and are displayed in the same direction.

[Emiko]

Interesting! I would like to hear the bells!

Do they chime automatically? I really like the lines in this shot.

[Sheralee S]

@lealady I've had it happen before but it's probably me not watching what I'm doing, lol. Thanks Leah, I would certainly miss you!

@skstein I think that maybe they do because there has been a lot of tunes composed just for them.

[Dione Giorgio]

Beautiful capture and view. Pity you couldn't be there for the chime.
