Orange building in Travno, Zagreb, part of army barracks complex.
Taken with Pentax K20D digital camera and smc Pentax-FA 28–90mm F3.5–5.6 lens.
I've been testing out the lenses, to see what they can do. This was cheap, plastic (and silver!) FA28–90 kit-lens from the last batch of film-era SLR lenses, in the early 2000s. The lens is really lightweight, the mount is plastic, and there is no distance marking on the lens. Optically, it isn't the sharpest knife in the house, but at ƒ/7.1 and up, it's not bad for a lens this cheap.
The United States Capitol in Washington, D.C., is among the most architecturally impressive and symbolically important buildings in the world. It has housed the meeting chambers of the Senate and the House of Representatives for almost two centuries. Begun in 1793, the Capitol has been built, burnt, rebuilt, extended, and restored; today, it stands as a monument not only to its builders but also to the American people and their government.

Lyveden survives from the Elizabethan period and dates back to 1604/05. It was being built for Sir Thomas Tresham but the construction stopped when he died in 1605. The gardens around the house were also never completed.
Gyeongbok Palace, Seoul, South Korea.
Built at the beginning of the Chosun Dynasty when the Yi Dynasty moved the capital to Seoul, this palace remained the main seat of power for Korea kings throughout much of the time to the present. Gyeongbok means Shining Happiness. The main gate (Kwanghwa-mun) separates Gyeongbok Palace from one of the busiest areas of Seoul. Gyeongbok Palace was built as the primary palace of the Chosun Kingdom by its founder, King Taejo in 1395, the fourth year of his reign.It was destroyed during the Japanese invasion of 1592 and left in ruins for over 250 years. Starting in 1865, it was rebuilt to its original grandeur.
The focal point of Gyeongbok royal palace in Seoul is the throne hall where Joseon’s kings were coronated and where affairs of state were conducted.

I had already put Cheltenham on my list of places to visit during our week in Gloucester. The last time I'd been here was when Matt was about 18 months old, so it was a fair while ago! I'd also spent a family holiday there as a child. What a beautiful place!
Here is part of the Promenade.

The Greek Orthodox Church of St. George, located to the northwest of the Madaba Archaeological Park, was built in 1896 over the remains of a Byzantine church. The famous mosaic map of the Holy Land, dated to the mid-6th century, is partially preserved as part of the church’s floor. It shows an area extending from Egypt to the Phoenician coast, and from the desert to the Mediterranean Sea. The cities and buildings of the map are oriented toward the east, as are the captions. There are 157 such captions and most of the sites have been identified.
The modern Arab village of Medeba (Madaba) is built on the ruins of biblical Medeba. During construction of the Church of St. George, the beautiful “Madaba Map” was found. This map was originally part of the floor of a Byzantine church, built during the reign of emperor Justinian, AD 527-565. It is the oldest map of the Holy Land that is still extant. Five other Byzantine churches have been discovered in Madaba, all with nice mosaics. This has led to Madaba’s designation as “the city of mosaics.” Madaba is 20 miles (32 km) south of Jordan’s capital city of Amman.

I have no idea what this mid-twentieth century beauty might have once been. From the looks of the place, my best guess is a jewelry store. If you look closely there are sockets for neon tubing up by the "D" and the "O" painted on the tiles of the tower on the left. I'm guessing the tiles are some type of carrara glass. I wish I could find more into about this place.
