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.....

No trip to Australia would be complete without the stunning image of the Opera House from the water. The shape and form of this building (for a retired architect) are awesome.
Sopot. Poland.
One of the most iconic things to do in Sopot is visit the famous forest opera. This massive amphitheater in the forest fits thousands of people in it and has some of the BEST acoustics in Europe.
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!

Forest Opera (German: Die Waldoper) - a forest amphitheater with an area of 4 ha, opened in July 1909 in Sopot. The Forest Opera is located on the edge of the Tricity Landscape Park in the forest complex of Oliwskie Forests. The facility is primarily characterized by very good acoustics and an attractive location. In the period from September 2009 to June 2012, the facility underwent a thorough modernization. The opera house currently seats 5,047 spectators,with the front sectors folded down, the total number of standing and sitting places is 5,579.
For whatever reason this cavernous underground space seemed like it should be the stage for an epic rock opera. Lower Randolph and Columbus, Chicago, Illinois.
This is a replica of the original Canmore Opera House which was built in 1898 with logs cut from the slopes of Ha-Ling. The original is now in Calgary''s Heritage Park.
The smoke is finally clearing so that we can see Canmore's iconic Three Sisters in the background.

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.
