Cast Iron Cooking

Think that’s one of the things I like about macro, you can make something mundane look more interesting!
Cast iron pans with flat bottoms came into use when cooking stoves appeared in the mid 1800's. Before that, kettles and pots were the main utensils in open fireplaces, ovens and pits.
Shoreline remains of wooden moulds used to cast concrete blocks. These were used to build the Churchill Barriers on Orkney. The wood has weathered from exposure to sea water over the decade and the steel hooks and rings used to move them by crane are slowly rusting away.
Worth expanding this photo to see the texture and the spiders web!

The 1858 cast iron "Little Cary"building located at 620 Broadway in the NoHo (an acronym for North of Houston St) section of downtown Manhattan.It's labeled as the "little Cary Building"because it's a near copy of a building (also a cast iron structure) built two years before it on 105 Chambers St called by that name.Cast iron façades was an early invention back then and it was used on buildings to make them look like masonry,and they were cheaper than cement.If you zoom in you can see the metal nuts still fastened to the wall and the faux masonry bricks,and even some signs of rust.The six-story,palazzo like structure had to quickly be put up because another building where new inventions from the 1858 World's Fair were being displayed had burned down,some newer items were shown at this new one.That was another reason for the cast iron facade on the new building,because the material was considered "fire proof"daytoninmanhattan.blogspot.com/2012/01/1858-cast-iron-no-...
The last sunlight cast a shadow on a dune, viewed from Balanced Rock in Big Bend National Park. The landscape seemed to glow in gold color. The backdrop is Chihuahuan Desert.
The downfall of a man is definitely not the end of life. Therefore, our glory is not in never falling but rising up after each fall.

While barns used to dominate farm sites throughout the countryside, they had a whole supporting cast of other buildings. Sometimes they were small while other times there were quite large buildings that sheltered hogs, sheep or cattle. Hard to tell what this intriguing building was but I suspect at least at one time it held chickens. On our farm, you could put chickens almost anywhere and they would be happy.
For the Paint It Black project on Flickr Friday, this is where my mind went the bottom of the skillet for this frame.
Das Gebäude ist stilistisch dem Brutalismus zuzurechnen. Es besteht aus 152 unverkleideten Beton-Blöcken zwischen 0,84 m3 (1,84 t) und 64 m3 (141 t); der höchste Block misst 13,10 Meter.
Das Licht fällt durch einfache Glasscheiben, die in die unregelmäßigen Zwischenräume eingesetzt sind, woraus sich überschneidende Lichtbündel ergeben.
An der Altarwand befindet sich ein Abguss des von Wotruba für die Hofkirche in Bruchsal geschaffenen Kreuzes.
Stylistically, the building can be categorised as Brutalist. It consists of 152 unclad concrete blocks between 0.84 m3 (1.84 t) and 64 m3 (141 t); the tallest block measures 13.10 metres.
The light falls through simple glass panes inserted into the irregular spaces between the blocks, resulting in overlapping beams of light.
On the altar wall is a cast of the cross created by Wotruba for the Hofkirche in Bruchsal.
This shot shows the shadow of some peeling lettering on a shop window cast onto a letter L that was part of the window display.
Seems the wind has knocked out my main internet, so will catch up extra slowly :D But when do I ever catch up quickly?

The finest hour has come for Kyiv chestnuts.
Aesculus × carnea, or red horse-chestnut, a medium-sized tree, an artificial hybrid between Aesculus pavilion (red buckeye) and Aesculus hippocastanum (horse-chestnut). Its origin uncertain, probably appearing in Germany before 1820. It is a popular tree in large gardens and parks.
Aesculus × carnea's features are typically intermediate between the parent species, but it inherits the red flower color from Aesculus pavia. Its showy flowers are borne in plumes on branch ends, blooming in spring and producing leathery fruit capsules in fall. It grows up to 40 feet tall and 30 feet wide, with a round head that casts dense shade when mature. Its leaves are dark green, palmately compound, and deciduous, each leaf divided into five large, toothed leaflets.
