Aphrodite washes her hair
Whereabouts is this - Greece? Italy? You could be forgiven for thinking you were somewhere in the warmth of the Mediterranean, with the warm hues and the statue of the goddess with the shapely limbs as she washes her hair..But no, you are not in the Mediterranean, for this photo was taken right here in Melbourne.
This classical artwork is the centrepiece of Milano serviced apartments in the heart of Melbourne's CBD in Franklin Street.
Today's quote: For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it. For every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it. For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it ~ Ivan Panin

A very beautiful feature! Elegant welcome to the apartments!
She's a real beauty! I wish we had statues like that one around my city!
Very nice. I don't know how you processed the photograph, but the effect is eye-catching.
Very nicely shot. Beautiful statue.

I am an Aussie from Cooma NSW, living in Canada on beautiful Vancouver Island off the west coast from Vancouver. We were watching Paul Hogan's movie Charlie and Boots. When they came to the Big Koala, I googled it and I don't quite remember how but that led me to your website. I have been sitting here showing my Canadian husband all the photos and feeling very homesick. Thank you. Vivienne Gibson Green.
