Stockholm syndrome pt.1

Recently went up to North Sweden and stopped by Stockholm along the way.

Here's the first of a series, mainly of the buildings around Stockholm. There's a nice blend of old and new, between Old Town where buildings that are centuries old have been preserved very well, to modern-ish buildings. Stockholm isn't the most expensive of the Scandinavian countries, but the costs are up there. Slightly cheaper than Sydney and Melbourne, just ever so slightly :)

All nicely composed, and classically so. The place appears to be depicted as one very empty place - where is everyone?

Thanks guys.

@biggerry - The first three were taken around 9am and at that time, there was hardly anyone around. The last one, it took me awhile as I was at a pedestrian crossing. I was waiting for the pedestrians to cross, cars to get out of the way and the light to co-operate (sun was coming in and out of the clouds and just wanted it to be in the right spot to get enough contrast while remaining soft)
