My 5 letters word is block.

I love shooting building blocks.

I had so many options for this but this is where I landed.

Happy Macro Mondays

Shot in Chicago's Old Town neighborhood.

On the way back from Mohegan Bluffs I had stop and take in the scenery here. It was rather extraordinary weather for November.

 

You'll notice the land - water - land- water sequence - These kinds of ponds next to the ocean are relatively common on Block Island, and I find them to be delightful.

.. more FFM pics .. happy Window Wednesdays my friends :)

Preparing two pieces of paper (20x20cm, glassine, grid 1:24) using square twists.

Curious what happened next? ;-))) Look here.

 

Have a nice day!

 

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.

The map location may not be accurate.

Granite blocks at the base of the Galveston, Texas, Seawall help prevent damages from waves and storm surges.

Waves crash over erosion-control granite blocks along the Galveston, Texas, beach.

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.

The Thames Barrier protects London from flooding but what about the homes on the other side?

From Manhattan Bridge.

NYC.

This line of blocks and pulleys below deck on board the HMS Discovery are very well preserved considering their age.

I was amazed to stumble across half a block of mostly hidden abandoned row houses in the middle of north Detroit. The surrounding blocks are mostly empty now. Just vacant overgrown lots and dark empty buildings.

Sometimes it's knowing when to stop.

HSS!

Sliders Sunday

The old stable block at Ightham Mote viewed from the tower on the manor house. It was converted into holiday let cottages which are currently being renovated. There is a small display of old photographs in the main entrance.

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 . . .

An almost blocked off section of stream near Takua Pa, Phang Nga, Thailand. We could just about wriggle through in kayaks.

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

My heart is broken. These once substantial buildings on the town square across the street from Clay County Courthouse, have been demolished.

Tahlequah a city of 16,000 plus 9,000 students at NSU college, the night is young and this party is getting started. The main street is closed for about 4 blocks. The NSU clock tower shines a blue light overlooking the strip below.
