The Block Arcade Melbourne

I have decided to put in the last of my Melbourne photos in here today. This is another one taken in The Block Arcade in the city. I just love this arcade, it has brilliant shops and cafes and the building itself is so beautiful. Given more time I could have spent a fortune in here. Good job we were in a bit of a rush when we went there otherwise I could have come home broke!!!
lovely.. looks like the strand arcade in Sydney

It is a nice architectural shot; I found it is difficult to shoot inside a building. The steps going down in the front part of the arcade give this photo a sense of dimension.

@isunseasurf @winnedreamer Thanks. I've never been to the Srand in Sydney, so I Googled it and I see there are similarities. The Strand looks much bigger and grander than The Block though. Must check it out next time I am in Sydney.

I must get back there again next time I am in Melbourne. A bit rushed this visit though. @sunraye Thanks so much for the fav Raye.

I like how you point of view leads the eye to two different areas. Good one.
