My 5 letters word is block.
I love shooting building blocks.
I had so many options for this but this is where I landed.

A beaut of a butte, east of Lake Powell, on the far side of Antelope Island, which lies low in the foreground, shadowed just before sunset. Note the layering on the butte and the cliffs behind, indicating sandstones and shales laid down by sedimentary processes—completely different from the massive intrusive granite blocks in Monument Valley, which are remnants of volcanic activity.

Granite blocks at the base of the Galveston, Texas, Seawall help prevent damages from waves and storm surges.
This was taken at Old Harbor in Block Island. Block Island is off the coast of Rhode Island and is a popular summer vacation spot for New Englanders. I got up early for sunrise, put my equipment in the basket of my bike are rode to the shore. The sunrise was a bust so I decided to look for other interesting spots to photograph.

This appears to be an old horse mounting block by the gate to someone’s garden. I cannot even begin to count the times we’ve walked passed this and not noticed it before. If it hadn’t have been for the snowdrops we probably never would have spotted it.
I suppose it will come in handy now if anyone should want to climb over the drystone wall.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
Has this ever happened to you? I was all set to catch a nice view of the "City of Derailment" passenger train, pulling into Salt Lake City on the double track main. Unbeknownst to me, a ZLBDV intermodal was also on the approach, about about 10 cars ahead of the passenger train, blocking the view. I quickly repositioned myself in a desperate attempt to grab a photo as UP 4533's nose migrated into a patch of sun. See if you can spot the Rio Tinto copper mine . . .
1968 Camaro. The 454 had to be an engine swap, I believe the largest big block motor available on the sixty eight's was the 396ci
An almost blocked off section of stream near Takua Pa, Phang Nga, Thailand. We could just about wriggle through in kayaks.
