Balmain, Thames Street wharf

Balmain Wharf, also known as the Thames Street wharf is in the inner west suburb of Balmain. Sitting on Mort Bay, it is serviced by Sydney Ferries which provide regular services between Circular Quay and Parramatta. There's a glimpse of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in the distance.

    The Thames St Wharf reminds me of the water-bus stops in Venice. Love it :)

    Simple and functional building and it looks quite old.

    The wharf is a most unusual style! The covered tunnel effect reminds me of the old warf at Queenscliff on the Bellarine Peninsula in Victoria! Interesting shot!

    Wonderful!!! I like the composition greatly...with the small teasing of the bridge in the distance. Well done.
