Row houses with traditional red roofs in Prague Old Town Square in the Czech Republic -
Taken in Maha Bandoola Park St (Yangon, Myanmar).
The infrastructural landscape of Yangon is gradually shifting. Antique hotels are being demolished in favour of five-star hotels.
I had no idea there was a high vantage point here!
Roger and Jill, thanks for driving me around to the interesting places!

It seems that there is a style of graffiti that is the same all over the world. I still can't read it.

An East Village rooftop on the Lower East Side in Manhattan, New York, offers a great view of famous buildings in downtown and midtown New York City. The lit buildings from left to right are the ConEd Building at 14th St and Irving Place, (and then to the right of the elevator shaft) the Metropolitan Life Building and New York Life Building on Madison Square, the Empire State Building on 5th Ave at 34th St, the Condé Nast Building on Times Square, and the Bank of America Building on Bryant Park at 6th Ave and 42nd St.
In need of some good light and colour I've re-worked this shot from last year in HDR for a bit of fun. It's been a dull Easter weather wise so far and I'm still waiting for the Sigma to be returned from repair.
The Plaza Hotel, formerly the Hilton Hotel, is a landmark skyscraper located at 106 Mills Avenue in El Paso, Texas. The hotel was constructed on the site of the Sheldon Hotel, which burned in 1929. The Sheldon served as the unofficial headquarters for many of the participants in the Mexican Revolution (1910-1920's) from both sides of the border. In the fall of 1929, Conrad Hilton began construction. Nineteen days later the stock market crashed and the Great Depression began, yet construction continued. On November 30, 1930, Hilton's first highrise hotel was opened. At 239 feet (73 m) in height it surpassed the O. T. Bassett Tower to become the tallest building in El Paso; it is still the city's third tallest building. Designed by Trost & Trost, the Plaza is an Art Deco styled 19-story steel-framed building with setbacks at the 16th and 17th floors. It is faced with brown brick and concrete and crowned with a copper-sheathed pyramid. The exterior remains largely unaltered from its original form. Elizabeth Taylor briefly lived in the penthouse of the hotel after she married Conrad’s son Nicky. The hotel was sold in 1963 at which time the name changed to the Plaza Hotel.
