Foto of Karlskirche in Vienna (especially for Steve)

In 1713 the plague swept Vienna and Emperor Charles VI made a vow if the plague left the city, he would build a church dedicated to his namesake, St. Charles Borromeo.The emperor's prayer was answered and this church of three styles - Greek, Roman and Barocco was built.

This scene seems so clear and full of light to me, that I wanted to dedicate it to somebody who has clear vision in general darkness :))
