This has nothing to do with Hiroshima day (although it was taken on August 6).

However, the building in the photo does have a certain significance: it is set at the geographic centre of Melbourne (est. 2003)

How this is determined is presumably by population weighting, since the site is in Ferndale Park, Glen Iris: about 10 km east of the CBD. (to be picky, the trig. point is actually behind the telegraph pole on the left.)

And the building? A public toilet.

I suppose a 'thunderbox' is kind of appropriate...
