A man alone in misery sits
His dreams have all been smashed to bits
Abandoned by the one he loves
His heart as fragile as a doves
Alone he sits inside the waste
Of mirrors smashed to hide his face.....

D'amore e di speranza..

The Queen Sofia Palace of the Arts,Opera House, Valencia at sunrise,
This was the last of the buildings constructed in the Arts and Sciences Park, opened in 2005 by Queen Sofia. Designed again by Santiago Calatrava, it is the tallest Opera House in the World with 14 stories, although from this level on the terrace the scale is hard to gauge.
You can't help thinking it looks like a Armoured Helmet from this angle, hence the title!

Ein Ausflug nach Wien
Alle, die keinen Urlaub machen können, mögen mich auf einer Runde durch Wien begleiten. Vorbei an den berühmten Sehenswürdigkeiten, aber vielleicht auch abseits Sehenswertes entdecken ...
Die Wiener Staatsoper ist eines der bekanntesten Opernhäuser der Welt. Die Fassaden sind im Renaissance-Bogenstil gehalten, die beiden Darstellungen über der Hauptfassade stellen zwei geflügelte Pferde dar, die von der Harmonie und der Muse der Poesie geführt werden. Im Mai 1869 wurde sie mit Mozarts Premiere von Don Giovanni eröffnet.
Die Staatsoper ist auch Schauplatz des Wiener Opernballs, der Höhepunkt der Wiener Faschingsballsaison. Er findet immer am letzten Donnerstag vor Aschermittwoch statt. Zu diesem Zweck werden die Stühle des Parterres abgebaut und ein Boden auf einem Gerüst errichtet, wodurch eine Tanzfläche von 850 m² entsteht und das Opernhaus in einen Ballsaal verwandelt wird.
A trip to Vienna
All those who cannot take a holiday may follow me on a tour through Vienna. Past the famous sights, but perhaps you will also discover sights worth seeing off the beaten track …
The Vienna State Opera is one of the most famous opera houses in the world. The façades are in the Renaissance arch style, the two figures above the main façade portray two winged horses led by Harmony and the Muse of Poetry. It opened in May 1869 with Mozart's premiere of Don Giovanni.
The State Opera is also the venue for the Vienna Opera Ball, the highlight of the Viennese carnival ball season. It always takes place on the last Thursday before Ash Wednesday. For this purpose, the chairs of the parterre are dismantled and a floor is erected on scaffolding, creating a dance floor of 850 m² and transforming the opera house into a ballroom.
I have folded and glued tiny pieces of white paper in an effort to create a model like image of the Sydney Opera House. I used a black background and off camera flash to create light and shade, and the colour and grain finish was added in Lightroom.

To stand on the balcony under the glass overhang, champagne in hand, in the performance interval in the warmth of a summer evening with the sea breeze wafting over you and the smell of the sea itself as you look out across the vast space, all the harbour lights and the massive bridge, is to stand on the bow of a great ship. And to dream of eternity ...
There is nothing else like it.
