What about overexposed shots - there are plenty of them. Unrealistic.

Sorry - i must have missed why there are now two threads on this topic.

CULWULLA · December 20th, 2005, 04:28 AM

i still think syd-en-nee has best night skyline probably due to fact theres light from over 800 skyscrapers and we have a great reflection factor (harbour) plus may seem to have really dif tops and loightiing schemes along with heaps of neons. A;lso Sydney is lucky being made up of multiple skylines which seem to go on forever,.

You know this is probably just going to turn out most people voting for their home city....... Oh well. Lol

theperthvan · December 20th, 2005, 09:18 AM

Sydney easily

JayT · December 20th, 2005, 09:25 AM

Sydney - North Sydney and the Bridge add to the night scapes. North Sydney has the most neon advertising.

The Bridge, tower and opera house all add value.

Melbourne

ex0dus1985 · December 25th, 2005, 07:09 AM

It was really warm here last night, so went out for a drive around with my camera and took some night photos:

Wide shot looking down Anzac Parade to Parliament House:

Narrower shot, as above:

Parliament House from Red Hill, with Anzac Parade and the War Memorial in the top right:

Civic (CBD) from Mt Ainslie:

Russell Offices (Department of Defence) from Red Hill:

War Memorial and Anzac Parade:

The Carillon:

The Carillon and surrounding park:

Huge panorama of Woden:

I really love inner Canberra, sure there isnt much of a skyline but with all the parks and great layout, its a very beautiful area. Very wierd to think that all this was just a grassy plain only 80 years ago!

***Sinjin P.*** · December 25th, 2005, 11:09 AM

Based on the pictures, I'd say MELBOURNE.

SUNNI · December 25th, 2005, 01:08 PM

i was very tempted to vote GC, but seeing these pics, Melbournes kicks ass

Leesome · December 25th, 2005, 03:29 PM

unfortunately - NOT BRISSIE!!!!

Alibaba · April 14th, 2006, 03:21 PM

Melbourne for sure...

And its skylines just keep changing and getting better and better...

The Big E (Eureka) is just most stunning building in Australia....
