Hoogheemraadschap van Delfland
The beautiful medieval Dutch government buildings and the adjoining pond, lit up on a pretty summer evening. The little round tower on the left is our Prine Minister's office. Next year the long overdue renovations start on the whole complex, so we will probably be looking at scaffolding for several years.
This is the Dutch government buildings in the Hague. Earlier I posted a blue hour taken from this spot, but the sunset had been quite beautiful too.

The spiralised staircase contrasts angainst the angular structure of this great example of functional architecture.
