The idle "Melbourne Star"

Melbourne's "Wheel" is currently closed for business. Looking for a new operator to start up the operation. It is a formidable structure on the city skyline.

Great pop of red and blue skies.

Love Ferris wheels for photography.

Sad to see something like this closed, even if temporary. I wouldn't go on it if I had the chance. I always say to myself "and if it suddenly stops while I'm up there? ". This happened to a friend of mine who was on a s smaller one and he was with his son of about 3 years while we waited for him on the ground.

I saw a documentary about this a while ago. It has been rather a disaster hasn't it.

[Lou Ann]

Seems so many large cities have Ferris wheels now. I hope someone steps up to start this one again. It looks like it would be fun to ride!

[Diana]

It does look amazing, you will never find me in one though ;-)

[Mags]

[Linda Godwin]

You took this at a nice angle

I like the red square "face" at the bottom. That's me if I ever rode on one!

[Margaret Brown]

Lovely capture, I think it would be fun if you like heights!

[Beverley]

The sky in the background is stunning. Beautiful photo!

[Peter Dulis]

looks like fun

[Rob Z]

So similar to Brisbane's Ferris Wheel - tourists seem to love it...

[Carole Sandford]

Great capture. Looks very like our London Eye.

[Olwynne]

Definitely like our London Eye. The height would give an amazing view over the city

[Kerry McCarthy]

Nice pov. Looks like a great day with that blue sky!

[Shutterbug]

Nice pov and I like the capture against that beautiful blue sky.

[Rick]

Great shot. Not sure I would want to go up in that one. :-)

[Paula Fontanini]

Too bad it's out of operation for now, it is really impressive looking. I love your perspective and the vibrant pops of color!

@sangwann oh my. What an awful experience! Thanks for your support

[Denise Wood]

It's just in the wrong place!!! I've been on it.

[Elisa Smith]

Oh that's a shame it's not up and running. We went on that a few years back and it was well worth the views.

@gilbertwood it was a fabulous ride.
