Augsburg, Bahnhofstraße - or, Who needs Paris? (◕‿-) (Title inspired by Katja)

Augsburg, Bahnhofstraße - or, Who needs Paris? (◕‿-) (Title inspired by Katja)
➽ The Sunday Challenge (TSC) - "ROOF LINES", NO restrictions ... let the creative juices flow!

Bahnhofstraße ("Train station street") in evening light - even more roof lines didn't fit in the street and on the photo (◕‿-)
(best in original size!)
________________________

➽ Nachdem der Hauptbahnhof 1846 in Betrieb gegangen war, führte noch 23 Jahre lang nur das enge, unbefestigte Pferseer Gäßchen in Richtung Innenstadt. Erst im Jahr 1869 entstanden der Königsplatz und gleichzeitig die repräsentative Bahnhofstraße. Nach 1869 verbreiterte man das Gässchen und schuf somit eine Geschäftsstraße und einen passenden Weg für Bahnreisende in die Stadt. Nach und nach belebte sich die Straße und wurde bebaut. Heute findet man dort einen Architektur-Stilmix, u.a. Neubarock, Neurenaissance, Jugendstil, aber auch Betonbauten aus den 70er Jahren. Es gibt eine Menge Geschäfte, Ärztehäuser, Banken und Restaurants, die Straße gilt heute als 1a-Lage auf dem Immobilienmarkt. Quelle: Augsburg-Wiki

➽ After in 1846 the main railway station was put into operation led yet 23 years only the narrow, unpaved "Pferseer Gäßchen" (Pfersee Alley) toward downtown. Not until the year 1869 the "Königsplatz" (Royal Square) was built and at the same time the representative "Bahnhofstrasse" (Train Station Street) emerged. After 1869 the small alley were broadened and thus created a shopping street and a suitable way for rail travelers to the city. Bit by bit the street became busier and was built on. Today one finds a mixture of architecture styles, inter alia, New Baroque, New Renaissance, Art Nouveau, but also concrete buildings from the 70s! There are a lot of shops, medical centers, bank buildings and restaurants, the street is now considered 1a-location in the property market. Source: Augsburg-Wiki

Quite complicated photo. It shows how difficult these kind of photos can be. Many of the architectural details are complete: the windows and vertical parts on the left, the round roof on the middle foreground, except for the ladder (?) on the right.

And a lovely golden glow against a dark gray sky, nice contrast

Dida From Augsburg club has replied to Diederik Santema club
The ladder is almost completely visible, with reference to the shadow can be recognizable that it's attached to a wall.
Furthermore there is always somewhere a boundary... well, perhaps except at 360 ° Panoramas! ;-DD

Mach doch mal einen Doodle mit Terminen, die für dich in Frage kommen und schick den Link an in Frage kommende Kontakte. Dann kristallisiert sich schnell ein Termin heraus... Bei Lutz und Maik sieht man in den Artikeln, wie sie's gemacht haben.
