Thèmes

Learning about the world is also remembering the history. When I saw Alexanders photo about Manhatten, I realised that this serious part of TE had no Theme.
I hope the photos here will reflect respect and hope.

In daily life it is a symbol of wealth, but sometimes . . . .

There is another theme on rooftops, but I noticed, people had made some beautiful close ups of the rooftops, and I wanted to give these a place of there own.

I like the peacefulness of the textures and colours.

During the period of the soviet union, there was a typical kind of architecture.
In this series I hope we can capture the mood of this

Architecture in Riga is one of it’s charmes!

The mixure of Jugendstil architecture and wooden houses is great. The centre is protected and on the world heritage list. Riga exploded out of it's historical borders during 1880-1914. Much of what is visable now, was build then. After WWII houses were still build in a german style (Stalin period), then big housing projects were started (Krosov period), resulting in the end in the concrete complexes we all know as typical soviet architecture.
