The Mystery Door

What do you think is behind door number 2? It could be anything. An ice cream, a hippo, a naked woman... a naked woman looking like a hippo and eating an ice cream. The possibilities are endless! Let your fantasies roam wild.
The Opera Hall

Part of the main hall in the Royal Opera House here in Stockholm. It has some really beautiful interiors and I was lucky to get to photograph them. Quite interesting lamps, yes?
The Opera Chandelier

This is the cealing above the Swedish national stage for opera and ballet. The chandelier is impressive, isn't it? Sort of located in the middle of a great tondo painting. The curvature of the arcade draws me in a bit; it's a beautiful building really.
The Opera Stairs

This is the main hall of the Royal Opera House in Stockholm. They change the carpets every year; I wonder what color they will be in 2013.
Royal Opera House

This is the Royal Opera House in Stockholm. It was constructed in 1898 and designed by Axel Anderberg.
Enter the Balcony

Here's an interior shot from the Royal Opera House in Stockholm. I think you're supposed to enter the balcony...
The Tondo Above

It's very difficult to photograph cealings and get all the lines symmetric, isn't it? To be honest, I did cheat just a little bit here, using the skew tool in Photoshop. You could say I just compensated for the lens distortion...

Anyway, this is a tondo painting inside the Royal Opera House in Stockholm. Unfortunately I have no idea who made it.
The Golden Baroque III

A centered perspective of the room we've seen in the previous parts.
