The cucumber

Cucumber is a caressing name of city buses that rode around the city in the middle of the last century. And this pink ugly thing is a Palace of Culture and Science. This is a gift from the Soviet Union to the people of Poland.

Neat composition. I guess the pink is lighting rather than the actual colour of the building. The architecture is interesting but I'm not keen on the colour !

Love the bus!

It is instantly recognisable as Stalinist in style of architecture. The cucumber bus is wonderful!

A good example of brutalist architecture... itself now in keeping with the historic Culture and Science that is celebrated inside. Good night shot.. you chose the moment well.

Fabulous night shot. Very much like the two 'pieces' of last century.

[Korcsog Károly]

History lives with us! If you want, if not! Otherwise, nice shot!
