Hehe, I see you left some of "Finns looking left" out of the picture, Toni

I've now began to take the camera with me everywhere I go. This is from yesterday morning. You may recognize the building in the background. This is taken at the eastern entrance of the centralstation, where the pedestrianbridges from Oslo City and the bus terminal meets. You see the latter one in the image. You may see the beggar that sits there. It's his regular spot, he always sits there, summer and winter. Although relatively few people give to beggars, I bet he makes a pretty nice income, as this pedestrian bridge is used by 100.000 people a day.

Also thanks to Toni(Oberleutenant) for helping me with the photo.

Look from the transparent elevator of Hotel Latvia, moving at the heigh of around 24th floor.
In the middle of August for some days in Riga Orthodox Cathedral arrived one of the most unique and sacred monuments of art - Icon of Tichvin. Many thousands of people stood in queue to see it night and day. Legend says that this artwork is made by one of apostles 2000 years ago.

Here's a pic I took less than a week ago. The building is called Amurinlinna (Amuri's castle). 48meters, 14 floors, was the tallest residential building in Finland 1955 when it was built!

Looked in after longer time - too much work...
This thread is fine - we even got representation from Brasil
To contrast with panorama pictures here something inside building:
Riga history museum, May. Some actors that day were walking around in the museum, doing different things with museum artefacts.
