A view of the rooftops of Bergen from what I believe is the University of Bergen Student housing complex where we stayed overnight in a dormitory with bunk beds.

Viewed from the restaurant of the National Portrait Gallery, Trafalgar Square (/ˌtrəˈfælɡər/ trə-fal-gər) is a public square in the City of Westminster, Central London, built around the area formerly known as Charing Cross.
Its name commemorates the Battle of Trafalgar, a British naval victory in the Napoleonic Wars with France and Spain that took place on 21 October 1805 off the coast of Cape Trafalgar, Spain.
The site of Trafalgar Square had been a significant landmark since the 13th century and originally contained the King's Mews.
After George IV moved the mews to Buckingham Palace, the area was redeveloped by John Nash but progress was slow after his death and the square did not open until 1844. The 169-foot (52 m) Nelson's Column at its centre is guarded by four lion statues. A number of commemorative statues and sculptures occupy the square but the Fourth Plinth, left empty since 1840, has been host to contemporary art since 1999.
The square has been used for community gatherings and political demonstrations including Bloody Sunday, the first Aldermaston March, anti-war protests, and campaigns against climate change. A Christmas tree has been donated to the square by Norway since 1947 and is erected for twelve days before and after Christmas Day.
The square is a centre of annual celebrations on New Year's Eve. It was well known for its feral pigeons until their removal in the early 21st century.
Miniature golf that is not boring at a series Oceanside rooftops is a favorite childhood memory of mine. I enjoyed this mascot that scared many children because I associated the big guy with Alfred E. Newman and Mad Magazine.
Elsewhere in my photostream there is a photo of this giant all busted up and laying down on the job. He was in storage ninety days after Hurricane Sandy. They did a pretty good job of fixing him up but never got around to replacing the head of the golf club in his hands.
On this visit I got some bad news from a Casino Pier security guard. This will be the last year for rooftop golfing in Seaside Hts., NJ. I hope either he was wrong or those plans change.
Despite being a rooftop, this is not a private location. Office buildings, condos, and hotels tower nearby. If anyone was watching, though, I was thankfully ignorant. The windows are too reflective to see inside and don’t open to allow catcalls.

The rooftops of Prague, myriad of architectural style create an inviting photograph. These are in the "Old Town" section of the city, just south of Old Town Square.
Tokyo really knows how to make use of every bit of space available...this roller coaster should be a fun ride zooming around the rooftop and through a ferris wheel!
Shots from my recent rooftop shoot. Not too bad for a 1st try, but need to work on my directing skills a little more. Sometimes it's hard to articulate exactly what I want the subjects to do.
