The wonders of Google reveal that the work's done but the pole still leans.

Walter, that's an interesting symphony of textures and decorative motifs with a most unusual "horizon" line. Maybe the pole doesn't lean so much in an absolute sense but the obvious misalignment with the straight up and down building worth a chuckle. The striped "Tiger Tails" on the bare wires are a nice visual kicker.

Maris,

In a somewhat unusual act for me I have omitted as much of the context as I could and tried to keep to the key components, almost solely. The structure is at the base of one of the steepest hills in the Eastern Suburbs and I did not engage direct or indirect lateral shift in the hope that the reduced formality of a slightly oblique viewpoint might sway the focal point away from the structure itself and towards the poles (large & small) and wires .
