Melbourne behind the Masts Photo

Photographer’s Note

While we (the Mrs and myself) were in Melbourne, we took a river cruise from Southbank, down the river Yarra, to Williamstown.

When we arrived at Williamstown, I looked back and could see Melbourne through a grid of sailing boat masts.

Just thought I would capture the moment and share it.

Hi Behram.
A nice crowded composition, making the most of that forest of masts against the city skyline. I like the way the close bits of jetty on each side act as a kind of 3d frame for the focal point, which is the well exposed white yacht. Well exposed shot of this very photogenic location. There have been quite a lot of shots of Williamstown posted on TE, I can assure you!
Regards,
Andrew

This view towards the city is very nice indeed. The forest of masts makes a good frame and combines very well with the vertical lines of the buildings. Well done.
