May I intodruce to you - The Theseus Temple. It stands in the middle of the "Volksgarten," a public garden in the 1st district of Vienna. The Temple was built between 1820 and 1823 by Pietro Nobile. It was thought as a home for the sculpture group "Theseus wins against the Kentaur," which was later replaced at the big staircase in the Museum of Natural History. Today the Temple is a well known meeting point for young people, lovers and friends.

Very good Sabine. Is the gold color natural or a reflection of light on it? No matter, it's a great shot and thank you for sharing it.

I assume that is ol' Theseus himself standing out in front of it? Very neat Sabine! I see the building is starting to show it's age some! Not the pristine white we see sometimes on these. Excellent capture of it ma'am! :)

joy is not in things, it's in us !!!
Another lovely composition Sabine. The warm, golden colour of the stone against that cool blue triangle of sky sets each element off to perfection. Also, intentional or not, I like the hint of the modern versus the ancient with a glimpse of a solar panelled roof between the pillars.
Cheers,
Steve.

This mail is a natural product. The slight variation in spelling and grammar enhance its individual character and beauty and in no way are tobe considered flaws or defects.
This shot really is superb. It has amazing colors, lighting & shadows. Excelent shot, almost perfect :).

Beauty is no quality in things themselves. It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them, and each mind perceives a different beauty.
Excellent shot! I especially like the lighting. I also appreciate the history lesson!!
