By the way people from all over the world - the LOCAL PUB IS CENTRAL TO AUSTRALIAN SUBURBAN LIFE AND CULTURE... Every suburb has churches, and pubs... I am working to fill the church, others are working at filling the pubs ;)

great shot, lovely angle, does well in b&w, great contrast too! Just not sure that it says "suburbia" enough? Mind you, in different parts of the world it very well could be suburbia! The trick is in remembering that not every country's suburbs are the same. :)

How does this say suburbia? Looks like a city building.

Great lighting and detail on the building. The power lines are both interesting but a little distracting.
