Dunolly Courthouse fence for Fence Friday, HFF!
The Dunolly Court House was built in the market square in 1862 as the Dunolly Municipal Chambers, to designs by Charles Toutcher
Strolling down to the end of Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, Colorada, I was stunned to see this amazing Art Deco building--the Boulder County Courthouse.
I can imagine how the residents might have considered this "ultra-modern" building when it was built in 1933-1934, amid mining towns, ranches, etc.. It was designed by architect Glen H. Huntington, and according to lore was constructed from the reclaimed sandstone of a dismantled bridge.
Open
the book of twilight
where pigeons
circle the courthouse
skimming low, fluttering
to roosts in oaks
that line the square
fading sky a bruise:
cerulean, plum,
a brushstroke of clouds,
dome and belfry
home to gnatcatchers
that swoop and pirouette
for nightbugs drawn
to streetlamps coming on;
this is the scene as dark
approaches, as cars’ twin
beams come on, as winds
that battered the state flag
atop the metal pole
begin to settle
winds that scoured
the countryside
all day but now die
to a whisper
a soft kiss
upon your cheek.
--Miguel deO
I took three handheld captures while laying on my belly to get this "lake" perspective at the puddle of water there in the rocky river bed. The camera was pretty low to the ground and at an angle to maximize the reflection and perspective here.
Das Gerichtsgebäude in Berlin-Mitte wurde 1896-1905 erbaut.. Diese schöne Eingangshalle steht schon seit Jahren auf meiner "Foto To Do Liste". Leider kommt man seit geraumer Zeit nur sehr schwer rein, da der Eingang sehr streng kontrolliert und abgeriegelt ist. Nach einem netten Gespräch mit dem zuständigen Justiz–Beamten, durfte ich wenigstens in der Eingangshalle mit dem Smartphone ein paar Bilder schießen.

The district court in Berlin-Mitte was built in 1896-1905. This beautiful entrance hall has been on my "Photo To Do List" for years. Unfortunately, for some time it has been very difficult to get in, because the entrance is very strictly controlled and sealed off. After a nice conversation with the responsible justice - official, I was allowed at least in the entrance hall with the smartphone to shoot a few pictures.
The current courthouse, designed in the Second Empire style by architect Alfred Giles, was completed in 1894.
Arches National Park is much more than just arches dotting the landscape. These beautiful rock formations are right off the road on your way to the Delicate Arch Trailhead. If you look closely you can spot a car heading past these landmarks to the left. The car looks like an ant compared to this collosal wall of sandstone.

This is a new courthouse completed about five years ago. It is located in Lancaster County, Virginia. I like the windowed cupola. HWW
The old Courthouse I posted in one of the early comments. It is still being used for offices and some other County departments.
The good thing about living in a small town is that when you don't know what you're doing, someone else does.
On summer nights the good old boys, local fiddlers, banjo pickers, anybody with a gee-tar or harmonica will show up on the lawn beside the courthouse and play old timey country and western and gospel songs.
Built in 1928 after the old courthouse burned down it cost 45 thousand dollars to build, have a good day thank you all for your visits comments and faves much appreciated!
A beautiful but stressful morning in Arches. It was stressful trying to decide what to shoot when everything looked so amazing with the sunlight breaking through the fog
The Allegheny County Courthouse & Jail in downtown Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is part of a complex (along with the old Allegheny County Jail) designed by H. H. Richardson. The buildings are considered among the finest examples of the Romanesque Revival style for which Richardson is well known.
