Melbourne

I lived in Melbourne for 10 years and call it my home town. The city is known for its eclectic mix of architectural styles, cultural diversity, and lively street art scene.

Architecture enthusiasts will discover fascinating buildings that blend modern skyscrapers with Victorian-era architecture. The iconic Flinders Street Station, with its stunning yellow facade, is a popular subject for photographers, especially during the evening when the city lights create a magical atmosphere. The Royal Exhibition Building and St. Patrick’s Cathedral are other architectural gems that beg to be photographed.

Melbourne’s laneways and street art are an absolute delight for photographers seeking colorful and vibrant scenes. Hosier Lane, in particular, is renowned for its ever-changing graffiti and street art displays. Each visit to this laneway presents new opportunities to capture visually captivating compositions, making it a must-visit location for any travel photographer.

Melbourne’s iconic skyline and waterfront areas provide breathtaking views. The Yarra River offers fantastic opportunities to capture reflections of the city’s architecture and vibrant waterfront precincts. Photographing the cityscape at sunrise or sunset provides a magical ambiance, especially from vantage points such as the Eureka Skydeck or the Docklands.
