Aptly named and I wonder if a bit of wishful thinking on Frederick's part. Expertly shot! BBV

Beautiful! So bright and colorful. When I was there 15 years ago a lot of soot covered this beautiful structure, and they were in the process of starting to clean it up. Thanks for sharing an image of this beautiful structure. V,
