I'll have to dig out my old packets of photos from my first visited Nyhavn in Copenhagen maybe 15 years ago, I'm pretty sure this is one of two near identical shots I took then with potentially even the same guy sat outside the same building.......

From Wikipedia : "Nyhavn is a 17th-century waterfront, canal and entertainment district in Copenhagen, Denmark. Stretching from Kongens Nytorv to the harbour front just south of the Royal Playhouse, it is lined by brightly coloured 17th and early 18th century townhouses and bars, cafes and restaurants. Serving as a "heritage harbour", the canal has many historical wooden ships."

I remember not being that impressed with the view from the top of the Monument when I went up it years ago, not least as it was difficult to shoot through the wire cage they've installed.
Given the Monument is now surrounded by a few new quite tall buildings I imagine I'd only be disappointed to go up again. The only thing that tempts me slightly would be to look down onto the twisted aluminium facade of the Make Architects Monument Building.

From Wikipedia : "The Monument to the Great Fire of London, more commonly known simply as the Monument, is a Doric column in the City of London, near the northern end of London Bridge, that commemorates the Great Fire of London.
It stands at the junction of Monument Street and Fish Street Hill, is 202 ft (62 m) in height and 202 ft (62 m) from the spot in Pudding Lane where the Great Fire started on 2 September 1666. Another monument, the Golden Boy of Pye Corner, marks the point near Smithfield where the fire was stopped. Constructed between 1671 and 1677, it was built on the site of St. Margaret's, Fish Street, the first church to be burnt down by the Great Fire.
The Monument comprises a fluted Doric column built of Portland stone topped with a gilded urn of fire. It was designed by Christopher Wren and Robert Hooke. Its height marks its distance from the site of the shop of Thomas Farriner (or Farynor), the king's baker, where the Great Fire began.
The viewing platform near the top of the Monument is reached by a narrow winding staircase of 311 steps. A mesh cage was added in the mid-19th century to prevent people jumping off, after six people had committed suicide there between 1788 and 1842. "

I hope you're not getting bored of these yet but the Erasmusbrug thanks to some lovely early morning light.
Considering my visit to Rotterdam was mid-October I was very lucky with the weather. I only stayed two days and thankfully I hardly saw a cloud in the sky.......

From Wikipedia : "Erasmusbrug (English: "Erasmus Bridge") is a combined cable-stayed and bascule bridge in the centre of Rotterdam, connecting the north and south parts of this city, second largest in the Netherlands. The bridge was named after Desiderius Erasmus, a prominent Christian renaissance humanist also known as Erasmus of Rotterdam.
The 802-metre-long (2,631 ft) bridge across the New Meuse was designed by Ben van Berkel and completed in 1996. The cable-stayed bridge section has a single 139-metre-high (456 ft) asymmetrical pale blue pylon with a prominent horizontal base, earning the bridge its nickname "The Swan".
The southernmost span of the bridge has an 89-metre-long (292 ft) bascule bridge for ships that cannot pass under the bridge. The bascule bridge is the largest and heaviest in Western Europe and has the largest panel of its type in the world."

A photo of the eye-catching interwoven facade of the Rotterdam Ibis City Centre Hotel by KCAP Architects. As can be seen here the effect was more pronounced when viewed at an oblique angle.
