To make this objective absolutely clear

This is the last installment of photographs from Warsaw, next I'll go back to forests and swamps. The weather forecast promises 10-20 cm of snow next weekend, so the landscape will change completely. A good reason to be outside walking with a camera...

The bright melody drowned

There was a nice looking and sounding waterfall in a lobby in Warsaw.

So as not to attract attention

These photographs were taken in Warsaw yesterday. Apparently some kind of (NATO?) event was being prepared in the city center. And there were a remarkable amount of churches. In fact, Wikipedia even has a separate index page of Roman Catholic churches in Warsaw (23 of them), and there were plenty of other churches as well.

When you open the door, everything falls into place

Yesterday I visited Warsaw. It was enlightening.
