Italy - Turin - Skyline 01_sq_DSC3951

As the sun started to set on our first day in Turin we headed up to the popular viewing terrace outside the Santa Maria del Monte dei Cappuccini church. Given how the historic centre of the city has avoided any modern high rise development the iconic 'Mole' tower stands out against the backdrop of the Alps.

This is a crop of my previous upload, I think the square format tightens up on the composition without losing anything of value in the frame. I've also darkened down the sky a bit...... An improvement ?

From Wikipedia : "The Mole Antonelliana is a major landmark building in Turin, Italy, named after its architect, Alessandro Antonelli. A mole in Italian is a building of monumental proportions.

Construction began in 1863, soon after Italian unification, and was completed in 1889, after the architect's death. Originally conceived of as a synagogue, it now houses the Museo Nazionale del Cinema, and is believed to be the tallest museum in the world. A representation of the building is featured on the obverse of the Italian 2 cent euro coin."
