Melbourne

Melbourne from the air
Past & present.

The flights in Skylines of a City cross the street grid, the Yarra and the gardens. This gallery brings the aerial and elevated views together by the landmarks in each photograph. Look for a bridge, a bend in the river or a street intersection to compare the city below. Different flight paths and heights mean foreground buildings can shift even where a distant landmark lines up.

Melbourne from the air, then & now.
