Domes and Delay

Well it has taken me an absurd amount of time to get back to posting.
 As I have said too often recently life is busy.
The day job and the rebuild are taking up more hours than I have most days and the blog is what has given.
After the WIIW of a fortnight ago I thought I would try a double bluff so I posted this image for WIIW.

But my attempt to deceive was blown out of the water by the first guess.

Jennifer (AKA Old Kitty) guessed:"Is that a dome? Like St Paul's dome!??"

Well it isn't as grand as St Paul's but you have hit a hole in one! 100%

Linda G said: "I was thinking some sort of dome, too, so it's probably something weird, like an extremely odd turtle shell, because you're tricky that way."

I guess that earns 80% because of the sheer cynicism you are exhibiting :-)

Marcy guessed: "Yep, dome would be my guess, like the kind on an observatory."

A dome it is - 100%

Susan said: "Let's see, judging by last week's pic, this one must be a close-up of an exotic tree. Yeah, that's it. The little-known, but highly sought after Australian Geodesic Mostus Rarus.
Or not. I got nothing. It kinda looks like part of a dome, so that must mean it's something entirely different."

Well I have to pay your mock Latin for Rare Dome, so I guess that earns 80%

So where is this dome?
I give you The Supreme Court of Victoria (glimpsed between its more modern neighbours).

A question to leave you with: when would something that is "Supreme" not be at the top of the pile?
