This is the dome of the building at 333 Collins St, Melbourne. It was originally home to the Commercial Bank of Australia and is considered by some to be Melbourne’s most prestigious address.
The decade of the 1880s was one of extraordinary financial growth in Melbourne. During the boom, Melbourne had reputedly become the richest city in the world. It was towards the end of that decade that the Commercial Bank of Australia opened this impressive building.
However, the 'land boom' was quickly followed by a severe economic crash in the early 1890s which lasted until the end of the century. By 1893, the Bank was 12 million pounds in debt and took over thirty years of careful operation before this debt was paid. In 1981 the Commercial Bank of Australia and the Bank of New South Wales merged to become Westpac Banking Corporation.
There was huge controversy in Melbourne when in 1973, the Bank planned to totally demolish the building and construct a multi-storey office block. This led to the formation of the Historic Buildings Council which ensured the Victorian architecture was preserved.
In 1987 Westpac sold the site to the Becton Corporation which constructed a 29 storey tower at 333 Collins Street. However the dome and much of the original architecture was retained.
Melbourne has many examples like this - old buildings retained and housed inside new high rise towers.

We had some great cloud formations here in Princeton this weekend. This is that magical time of day when the shadows grow long for just a bit before the sun disappears beyond the horizon.

Spotted this Scarlet Tiger moth on the way back from an early damselfly shoot. Thought It would be more interesting with a wideangle view of its' habitat.

Several petroglyph sites in northeastern Utah feature large human figures with an object dangling from one hand. The objects have various shapes, and many researchers have speculated that they coulld be trophy heads. This warrior has a shield in one hand and perhaps a victim in the other. I chose a low angle to emphasize the threatening spirit I felt when I saw this rock art. It is located at McKee Springs in Dinosaur National Monument. The photo was taken on slide film in 2001 and scanned as part of my project to archive my old images.
Behind the metal frame and glass panels, stairs and an escalator lead up to an enclosed walkway (overpass) over Macleod Trail, one of Calgary's busiest roads, and on to Chinook Centre shopping mall.
Note how the curved design of the red benches contrasts with the straight lines and angles of the structure behind them.
Regarding architecture, it is often said that "form follows function." While true in many cases, this ignores the fact that architects can also use frivolous architectural forms to show off, to indulge their egotism and vanity, and to attract attention to themselves for the purpose of obtaining future commissions. Viewers should ask themselves, "What is the purpose, the function, of the diagonal linear forms and triangular shapes on the outside of the structure [in the photo above]?" Mere decoration? Artistry that enhances the urban environment?
