Federation Square - R U 4 or agin' it?

Personally, I love it for the architectural masterpiece is in spite of critical changes to the original plans that the architects were forced to make during construction. Regardless of its radical design it appears to me to sit comfortably aamong some of Melbourne's older buildings. But that's history and this is photography. What do you think, thumbs up, thumbs down?

Good morning Amber, Thanks. I'm outa here today for a week's trekking on the coast and to see if I can get a few dreamy shots!

No idea as to what the tiles are made of, when I took the shot I was just gob-smacked with what was going on around me, pigging out on all the people. But if you're interested, this link takes you to its absorbing history, and the controversy that surrounded its development. http://www.abc.net.au/fedsquare/
