[Leica] Nathan's PAD 26/11/2018: Warsaw, old and new

[Nathan Wajsman]

I am spending the week in Warsaw, my last business trip of  the year. The days are short here in late November, so I suspect that most of my photos will be of the night variety. Last night I went for a walk around the hotel. It was a clear and cold evening, with light frost. I walked up to a building that was emblematic of Warsaw in Communist times, the Palace of Culture and Science, a “gift” from Stalin to the people of Warsaw, completed in 1955:

The entrance to the Stalinist eyesore looks nicer and more colourful than it did in the bad old days:

And then you take a lift to the observation deck on the 30th floor, and the new, post-1989 Warsaw, is right there in front of you:
