It does look like a beautiful evening! Is that the Cathedral peeping over the front building? and people sitting outside at tables along the waterfront? What a great view!

It's a separate structure  a ways behind the waterfront area.  It is the Uspenski Russian Orthodox Cathedral.  it's an incredible massive structure that I took a lot of pictures of :)

Oh Good!  More to come, then.  :)   Your photo seems to contain a real mix of cultures and influences in that view.

Love the perspective and evening mood in this one. Pretty glow in the sky just tops it off. It's fum to see the details in the full version- bicycles, people, etc. Very inviting.

It isn't, I had a temporary loss of sanity, I meant to say Russian Orthodox.
