From Germany

Back in Germany over the weekend, this time in Wiesbaden where we had wonderful weather and 30 degrees!

There is a stunning venue called the Kurhouse right in the middle of the city and either side of the Kurhouse were two collobnades, one is a casino, the other a row of shops.

Inside the Kurhouse itself there was a sweet postcard box:

Nice shots Paul, especially the first shot. I haven't been to Wiesbaden for a while, it's a very nice city and close enough for a train ride to Frankfurt which is also nice for photographs, especially if you can get the night time shot of the city skyline.
