CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge

[Henrik]

Here in Switzerland it is very difficult to find murals. The building codes are extremely strict, which leaves very little room for some colorful art on walls that are in display to the public. So, I tried to think of where there might be something I could use as a suitable backdrop for this month's challenge.

I suddenly remembered that in the nearby town of Nyon there is a wonderful mural that the city has done to commemorate its Roman past. Some 2000 years ago, Nyon was a Roman city that contained many wonderful structures. Over time, these all disappeared and became buried under new constructions, and so today whenever there is some construction work being done, they tend to find remains of the Romans (and Julius Caesar!). In a square of the old town, they have painted a mural that resembles a temple that once stood there.

Many years ago I took a photo of my Austin Mini in front of the mural. At the time it was easy to access and to get a good shot.



Now the square in front of the mural is covered by a café, and so I struggled to squeeze the CB in front of it:
