Melbourne by Balloon
melbourne February 11, 2013
The Melbourne skyline is an amazing spectacle when viewed from anywhere around the city, however it becomes so much more remarkable when given the opportunity to view it from above. On the 14th of January 2013, I had this opportunity, enjoying a hot air balloon trip across the centre of Melbourne whilst also capturing its breathtaking vista's at the same time. Departing from Moorabbin, the 90 minute journey travelled through the inner suburbs of Melbourne such as South Yarra and Richmond, offering spectacular views of the Melbourne CBD, Southbank and surrounding areas, before landing perfectly at Essendon Airport. Below are a collection of images taken from the hot air balloon journey, highlighting the magnificent city of Melbourne.
