The Royal Exhibition Building – Melbourne

Possibly Melbourne’s most beautiful building, located in the middle of the gorgeous Carlton Gardens.

I’ve photographed it on a Spring day – it looks beautiful white and photographed it on a fine Winter afternoon – it was glowing gold. 

Australia being the new settlement country has very few buildings which can boast of being part of the world heritage. And yet, in the heart of Melbourne city, there is this 140 years old building, which in 2004 founds its way into UNESCO World Heritage list. It has a brilliant exterior adorned by an iconic fountain. The Carlton gardens surrounding it are beautiful to spend an afternoon. … More The Royal Exhibition Building – Melbourne

Our Visit to Wilsons Promontory National Park

Wilsons Promontory National Park is an unspoilt, ruggedly beautiful park at the southern most tip of the Australian mainland. Wilsons Prom is a must see for anyone visiting Melbourne, if you have a little time up your sleeve to leave the metro area. It is approximately a 2.5-3 hour drive from Melbourne. The ‘Prom’ was all that we had imagined. Animals large and small like koalas, wallabies, echidnas, lizards, emus and birds of lesser stature were plentiful. There was plenty of bird life like Crimson Rosellas, Yellow Tailed Cockatoos and Black Faced Cormorants which we spotted as well.

Most amazing views of New York skyline – Jersey City

The views of New York city which we have seen from the Jersey City waterfront will stay forever with us. Every time we will talk about new York the view of the skyline from Jersey City waterfront comes up first than anything else. That is more convincing than anything else that New York trip is not complete with a visit to Jersey City Liberty Park and Jersey City waterfront. 

The Waterfront at Exchange Place-PATH station remains without any doubt the best view of New York city sky line especially lower Manhattan’s shimmering glass, & chrome. Trust me. It’s virtually impossible to appreciate the wonder of it all once you’re across the Hudson in the City. I was constantly trying to capture the perfect shot of the water, sky, and human element combined. It’s hard to be disappointed whether its day or night on your visit.  … More Most amazing views of New York skyline – Jersey City
