Cracked Up

This is for Macro Monday's "Crack" theme. I'm finding these challenging, but really good to stretch the imagination & photography skills.

 

So this is a crack in one of the bricks on our house. Rotated horizontally for easier viewing. A couple of things this made me think about:

 

My wife is going to kill me because the first time I post a photo of the bricks that make our house, I post a cracked one. With a weed growing out of it. 😬

 

Isn't it cool the way nature takes over manmade items eventually, our house being 25 years old (this is probably more a testament to what a lazy handyman I am looking after the place). I love those old temples in Cambodia where the trees have consumed the temples. They look amazing! 😮 Must dig out some old pics of that.

 

Rotating the pic to horizontal made me wonder what if we lived in a horizontal world, you know if there wasn't gravity & stuff, what would humans look like? Would we be horizontal instead of standing/sitting vertically as well? Would we have 2 legs& 2 arms on the same side of the body? Would we watch TV sideways? We would look at contact's photos on Flickr laying down, in which case this photo would be the right way up. Or would it. Too hard to think about for this tired brain 🤔😵💫

 

Anyway I digress sorry, have a fantastic week ahead ✌😀
