The building which featured in the distorted city photograph was very distinctive even in its twisted state. It was very reminiscent of St Basil’s Cathedral in Moscow. Indeed the two buildings are both cathedrals. The cathedral which featured in Where in the World (88) was the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral. It is a stunningly beautiful building and photographs do not do it justice. This particular religious building is in the Estonian capital, Tallinn.
Three people identified the city from the photograph. Congratulations to Tim (@timofnewbury), Jon (@SparksJon) and Richard (@RField75). Richard had his answer back almost before the electrons had time to settle. Less than two minutes after I posted it the answer came back which has to be a record – though I haven’t been timing responses.
This week’s twisted photograph is another building often associated with the city. Identify the building and you will have gone a long way to identifying the city but it is not city’s most photographed structure.

I took the exact same photo when I was in Tallinn (the undistorted version obviously), so was fairly confident!

I also have some beautiful shots of the cathedral. It really lends itself to being photographed.
