"Built in Canada in 1953, before they started driving on the wrong side of the road. Pulled it out of a paddock near Toowoomba last year. All original except for one headlamp. You want to buy it? I wouldn't let it go for under 8 grand. If nobody wants it I'll do it up myself - done one before. I'll be 80 next year, time to retire. It'd give me something to do I suppose."
Built in seven years, an increíble feat for the time, the Sainte Chapelle was intended to house precious Christian relics, including Christ's crown of thorns, acquired by Saint Louis.
Sainte-Chapelle is one of the earliest surviving buildings of the Capetian royal palace on the Île de la Cité.

The image was built up using a multitude of stellated mirrors but "Consummation", while still using mirroring, is patterned more with right angles. Some may see 'Crosses' and 'Stars of David' and wonder if there's a covert religious message here. There isn't. It is all about shapes and visual relationships ... nothing more. Besides, both the stars and the crosses are truncated in certain places, so they really bear no connection to religious icons. 6 Point stars and cross shapes exist in many Non-Abramic cultures. Art in the service of pure Abstraction is the intent here.
Again, I indulged in the play between symmetry and asymmetry. When utilizing previous images in these collages, elements and features of those pieces still show, which adds to the interest of the finished "Extreme Mirror" work. Bits of line, text and parts of discernible images peek through. And one is hard-pressed to find where one element, shape or graphic begins and another begins. Layers are deliberately mixed and layered in such a way that very little has total dominance. These pieces then, weave back and forth between fore, middle and back grounds. This falls in line with my view that no single, fixed view of reality can be the total picture.

The Zamość Rotunda was built in the years 1825-31, as a defense system for Zamość.
During World War II, the Germans created a camp for arrested people here. Later, in 1942, this facility was also the site of numerous mass executions, which included the population of the Zamość region, including children, until 1943. It is estimated that about 8 thousand people were killed here.

Rotunda Zamojska była wybudowana w latach 1825 - 31, jako system obrony Zamościa.
Podczas II wojny światowej Niemcy stworzyli tu obóz dla ludności aresztowanej. Później, w roku 1942, obiekt ten stanowił także miejsce licznych, masowych egzekucji, jakie obejmowały do roku 1943 ludność Zamojszczyzny, w tym również dzieci. Szacuje się, że pozbawiono tu życia około 8 tysięcy ludzi.
The "Länderbrücke", a joint effort in 1901 by Austria and Bavaria, after the old wooden bridge was destroyed by a flood.
The city on the opposite side of the river - Oberndorf in the Salzburger Land
It was built at the end of 19th Century by master-builders Pyrch Mykhailo Mykhailovych and Pyrch Fedir Mykhailovych and re-built in 1946. After Prykarpattia’s joining to the Soviet Ukraine, the mill became the property of a local collective farm. It was used for its intended purpose. In 1960th, after a water flood it didn’t function till 1970th, when transferred to the Museum. The mill stayed on a bank of a torrent, flowing out of Shypit water flow.
The building has a double-room log construction. It consists of a “shack” to shelter the visiting farmers and a mill itself with mechanism. It has two waterwheels and two pairs of stones – grinding plates.
The flouring mill is built of smereka wood. Its high roof is covered by combination of straw and wood. It is the only showpiece of the museum with such combination of roofing techniques.
To grind corn, water should be forwarded to the walls. For this purpose, the stream has been dammed up by smereka timbers. Water taken from the torrent passed by hollowed-up logs to the upper wheels; they turned the axles with wheels – gears, and they tuned a shaft and the upper stone. Grains had to be loaded into a hopper fixed above, and flour fell into a through, fixed under the lower stone.
Total area of the building is 62.7 square meters.
Млин із села Пилипець, Міжгірського району, Закарпатської області. (праворуч)
Збудований наприкінці ХІХ ст. Майстри-будівничі - Пирч Михайло Михайлович і Пирч Федір Михайлович. В 1946 році його перебудували. Після приєднання Закарпаття до радянської України млин став власністю колгоспу, використовувався за призначенням. В 1960-х роках після повені млин не функціонував до 1970-х років, коли його перевезли до Музею. Млин стояв на березі стрімкого потоку, що витікає з водопаду Шипіт.
Споруда має двокамерну зрубну конструкцію і складається з «хижі» - приміщення, де жили і відпочивали приїжджі селяни, і млина з механізмом. Він має два водяних колеса і дві пари каменів – жорен.
Млин збудований із смерекового дерева. Високий дах комбінований, покритий соломою і деревом. В музеї це єдиний експонат, де поєднано різні матеріали та покрівельні техніки.
Щоб перемолоти збіжжя, треба було спрямувати воду на колеса. Для цього потік перегороджувався гаттю із смерекових колод. Воду з потоку подавали довбаними колодами на верхніх коліс, які обертали вали із закріпленими на них колесами – шестернями, а вони обертали веретено і верхній камінь. Зерно засипали в кіш, що кріпиться зверху, а борошно сиплеться в корито, яке закріплене внизу нижнього каменю.
Загальна площа споруди – 62,7 кв.м.
Boykivska hata - a dream of the Ukrainian national national ground of its construction, development on Boykivschy.
The barn is built of Kentish ragstone and is six bays long with a hipped clay tiled roof. The exterior has stone buttresses between each bay and at the angles of the barn. The west front has five pointed doorways and a central porch. The ground floor of the porch is stone but above it is timber-framed with modern brick infilling. The first floor projects on protruding ends of the floor joists and brackets. On the north side of the porch is a double loft door approached by an external stone staircase. The west front has five small windows on the first floor. The east front has six narrow windows on each floor. The interior includes a crown-post roof.
The tithe barn was built in the 14th century and was subsequently used as the stables of the nearby palace of the Archbishop of Canterbury. The palace was begun by Archbishop Ufford in about 1348 and completed by Archbishop Islap by about 1366. It was enlarged in the 15th century and exchanged by Archbishop Cranmer with Henry VIII for other lands in the 16th century. The barn has latterly been used as a carriage museum.

Built in the 14th Century, St Michael's church is the oldest building in Betws-y- Coed. The church houses the fine stone effigy of Gruffydd ap Dafydd Goch, a Norman font, and many interesting features. Displays in the church tell its history, and the church yard with its majestic yew trees makes a tranquil resting place.
Built in 1888, this historic bank building stands across from the US Treasury Building in Washington DC. Designed in the Queen Anne style,, the building features copper and brick design elements.
Galerie Vivienne, built in 1823, is one of the most emblematic galleries in Paris. Quietly located, behind the Richelieu library and the Palais Royal, his visit is worthwhile. On the ground, we admire mosaics with colorful patterns. We look up to appreciate the beautiful canopy that lets in the light. The shops are numerous: ready-to-wear shops, tea rooms, gourmet shops, wine cellars, grocery stores, antique bookshops ... You can also visit Galerie Vivienne through the streets of the Bank and Vivienne.
La Galerie Vivienne, construite en 1823, est l’une des plus emblématiques galeries parisiennes. Située au calme, derrière la bibliothèque Richelieu et tout près du Palais-Royal, sa visite vaut la peine. Au sol, on admire les mosaïques aux motifs colorés. On lève les yeux pour apprécier la belle verrière qui laisse passer la lumière. Les commerces sont nombreux : boutiques de prêt-à-porter, salons de thés, boutiques de gourmandises, caves à vins, épiceries, librairies anciennes… On accède également à la Galerie Vivienne par les rues de la Banque et Vivienne.
Built in the 16th century, Morelia is an outstanding example of urban planning which combines the ideas of the Spanish Renaissance with the Mesoamerican experience. Well-adapted to the slopes of the hill site, its streets still follow the original layout. More than 200 historic buildings, all in the region's characteristic pink stone, reflect the town's architectural history, revealing a masterly and eclectic blend of the medieval spirit with Renaissance, Baroque and neoclassical elements. Morelia was the birthplace of several important personalities of independent Mexico and has played a major role in the country's history.
Built in 1626, Ye Olde Whyte Lyon is an historic community pub that has truly stood the test of time thanks to a winning combination of beautiful beer, great pub food and friendly service.
Located in the centre of Locksbottom, near Orpington, it’s got everything you could wish for in a classic Kentish pub.
With the California Gold Rush, settlements sprung up rapidly where none existed before. French Corral was one of these. In these hastily constructed camps though, fires were an ongoing problem, often razing settlements to the ground, many more than once.
Banks ended up needing to engage stonemasons to build fireproof buildings to gain the confidence of their customers. This Wells Fargo Express is an excellent example of these fireproof constructions, not just the switch from wood to brick, but also the iron doors and shutters they used. Wells Fargo pretty much had a presence in every mining community in California, with not just banking, but before railroads reached California, freight and express services too.
In many cases, their building remains the only real evidence that a gold rush town even existed. This one would have sat beside hotels, saloons, a hardware store, and a post office, all made from wood or canvas. Now, it stands largely alone, like a farm building rather than part of a town. Appropriately, I took this picture during fire season and the entire sky is a haze from grass fires close by.
Wells Fargo was founded in 1852, and this building was constructed the very next year.
One of my attempts at the "Macro Mondays" theme "Treasured".
While I initially thought I wouldn't have a lot of options for this theme (because I don't really 'treasure' a lot of old items - apart from my lenses...) it turned out there were a few after all. This is an old perforator that belonged to my wife's grandfather. I don't know the exact age but it could have been made anywhere from the 30s to the 50s and it still works perfectly fine even though it was probably used heavily every day for decades in it's earlier years. It's really well constructed, quite heavy and mounted on a beautiful wooden plate. It might not have got any monetary value but for us it certainly is a kind of treasure nonetheless!
The longer side of the image is around 6.5 cm!
BTW. for anyone interested in these things: This is taken with a lens probably the same age than the perforator! The Perigraphe is a really interesting lens design from the French manufacturer "Som Berthiot" and while it is certainly not a fast lens (wide open at F 14) I feel like it has a really nice rendering and it features a wide image circle!
Shot with a Som Berthiot "Perigraphe 90 mm F 14" lens on a Canon EOS R5.
Duff House in Banff … the front entrance has the double sweep of an imperial staircase, making the front beautifully symmetrical.
Now in the care of Historic Environment Scotland, it is part of the National Galleries Scotland and is a Category A listed building. It holds part of the National Portrait collection.

Built in 1974, the sign became known as the “gateway to the Cross”, featuring on music videos, TV, famous photographs and as a landmark meeting point.
Considered the largest billboard in the Southern Hemisphere at 41 metres long and 13 metres high, the sign is comprised of two sides – the right being the traditional red and white Coca-Cola sign and the left being a flex-faced sign that’s used to display the latest Coke campaigns.

Built in 1831-1832, the lighthouse is of local stone quarried from the beach below the cliff. It is believed it was constructed quickly following the wrecking of a ship on the Nash Sands in March 1831 which resulted in the loss of 78 lives.
Jaywick Martello Tower, built 1804-9 as part of a 74 tower defensive coastal network against the threat of invasion by the French under Napoleon Bonaparte. The tower contained cannon and howitzers, it's walls are around 9' thick and constructed of 750,000 London clay bricks made in Grays, Essex.
During the construction the building began to sink into the salt marsh under it's own weight meaning that extensive work was necessary to stabilise the foundations.
The building is now an arts, heritage and exhibition centre.
