Mostly, my ‘urban’ photos are to draw attention to something skyward: clouds, sunsets, trees & the like, so I’m not sure I’m meeting the challenge as such, but I will attempt to meet the Weekly Photo Challenge – Urban as opposed to streetscape – or parks and trees and or sunsets …
From the river, at Matilda Bay, the city rises across the river (one of late summer/early Autumn & one of late winter/early spring with flame tree flowers)
& clouds dwarfing any concept of ‘urban’
the city from Beaufort Street – different depending on what cafe I was at 🙂
And from William Street, standing on the edge of Hyde Park, looking citywards:
This is also just outside Hyde Park – & it’s a bit of an iffy inclusion, but storm clouds over urban straight lines…
Urban sunsets:
and now, urban shots from within – within the ‘urban’ that is. They are all taken from an alleyway and upper Hay Street, West Perth.
These are experimental, playing with straight lines in comparison with clouds:
Well, that’s my entry to this Weekly Photo Challenge – Urban. I am getting more interested in the play of straight lines & shadows in contrast with clouds and trees, but don’t have much time to experiment. I hope, nonetheless, you enjoyed them.
Not many trees though 😦

In some respects. Pretty and rapidly destroying its character. THere’s too much money and people are forgotten, as are trees and history.

of course they do 😀 But trees, sadly, isn’t considered as ‘urban’ – though I don’t know there’s many photos without trees 🙂 & thanks :-0
