I've seen so many pictures of that building taken from almost ever possible angle and distance. And very few of them I like. Yours is definetly one of the best. It's how it is supposed to look on the pic for me - Perfect!

It was in 90, I was making my first movie in poland. i was at the Napoleon hotel, if I remember well, and from my window I could see the Palace Kultury... The country was still under communist command... this monument stayed, everything else changed.

^ true. the formerly east europe states (and since knowing them more, i tend to call them north) change incredibly fast. crazy to see it with Riga, where I am so often, but still, it's noticable. but even if you live there. but i have the impression poland is doing it different, more slow. will have to ask joanna about that when she is in Riga again, for her second time. what she thinks. (ps - in the teatr, on the left, is the wonderful café - quiet sure it was not like that in the 90s. but who knows.)

it's perfect, g. one of my favourite pictures of this so often photographed building. it's great to see how other people perceive the city. specially, when they are not ordinary people.

^ and specially when those meet other special ones who share their view(s), and (help to) show and unveil the hidden treasures.
