My Brisbane 15 - Adelaide Street

Adelaide St runs parallel to the main drag, Queen Street and once used to rival Queen Street for shopping etc.
Now it seems to be primarily a bus thoroughfare and the shopping has centred on the Queen St Mall. That's the bad news. The good news is that the Council planted a number of Leopard Trees on the edge of the footpath which provides an avenue of green in the centre of the city.
I forgot I still had the setting on B&W so this is a bit of an accident. I'll try it in colour some other time when it is sunny.

Fantastic capture!!!!! We were in Brisbane recently and I said to my husband this would make a great photo but you would have to stand in the middle of the street so how did you survive lol fav

Nice shot in b&w. Magnificent archway. I wondered where you were standing too. I had a vision of you being mowed down by traffic.
