The view is from the 7th floor. The circle is the main trafic spot in Ramallah - a really nice city with marvellous people.
Den østlige del af middelalderbyen ligger inden for oldtidens paladsmure, den vestlige del er vokset udenfor. Bygningen med blytaget er dåbskapellet (oprindelig jupitertemplet). I baggrunden Marjan-højen.
The eastern part of the medieval city is inside the antique palace walls, the western part has grown outside it. The building with the lead roof is the baptistery (originally the temple of Jupiter). In the background the Marjan Hill.
Lykkesholms Allé 49 (1953), viewed from Stenkildevej.
From a registrant photowalk series made for the local historical society. The purpose of these walks is not to take photos of individual buildings, but rather to document the streets as a whole in order to preserve the views for future generations.
Some houses will inevitably be obscured behind fences and hedges. In such cases, there will be a photo of the hedge or fence in question. The photo will, of course, be rubbish, but it will accurately show the best possible view from a public road. Over the years, fences and hedges will come and go (as will the houses), sometimes improving the views, other times, the opposite. Also, in some cases, there's a choice between a (reasonably) unobstructed view, but poor lighting conditions, or a severely obstructed view, but better lighting.
I respect people's privacy and generally use the following guidelines...
I blur: license plates of private vehicles parked by private (1- or 2-family) homes, legible names on mailboxes, recognizable faces in fore- or middleground of a photo. I do NOT blur: license plates of commercial vehicles, license plates of private vehicles in traffic (unless in very prominent position), license plates of parked private vehicles by apartment buildings and shops, faces in the background of a photo. For the same reasons, some photos will be downloadable, others not... download (generally) enabled for: public buildings, generic views (streets, nature, events etc.), apartment buildings. Download disabled for: private homes (1- or 2-family), photos of special importance to me.

I have long wanted to do a snow globe referencing the "Planet of the Apes". As is occasionally the case I started the piece and let the special twist/point come to me. After consideration I decided to have this one make comment on how public spaces (for example, Riis Beach) are being monetized and the consequences of creating/catering to such tourism endeavors:
