A vintage phone booth stands next to a single window on a red brick wall. The contrast between the old telephone booth and the sturdy brickwork creates a nostalgic, urban atmosphere.

And thus ends the month of April. Kind of a boring month, really. It's like the backlash of the high from making front page. Ah well, I kinda like the simplicity of my pictures. That and I know who my true followers are :) You guys are wonderful, truly!
It was super windy today and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to use it. However, I'm not dressed in the best attire for showing off wind...but you can at least see it in my hair :-P
Actually the "spirit" me was a total accident. THIS IS WHY YOU SHOULDN'T DELETE ANY PICTURES ON YOUR CAMERA. I firmly believe that. When I took it I thought "crap I moved too soon" and look what happened...I ended up using it :-P
Yeah I know I got in front of brick again...but this campus is OBSESSED with brick. Every single building is made of it! That and there's no brick back in Ohio so I thought I might as well...
Overall not really happy with the picture. But it's better than yesterday's so I'll take that.
I'm feeling better now that I got some sleep. Yesterday was just crazy. Today I just have my IDS class and a math session at noon before my mom and grandma show up. Then the choir concert is tonight at 7:30 and I think mom's taking me and my friends out to eat after...even though it'll be like 9:00 :-P
TRF: My roommate slept here last night and the night before...this is super rare.

Old waver's houses in my hometown. It's a complex of 6 small one-story houses with a residential attic, built before 1890 on the edge of a working-class neighbourhood. The houses were intended as flats and small weaving workshops. Weavers recruited by factory owners in Bohemia lived there. The buildings are distinguished by the characteristic half-timbered attic walls.
Żyrardów - small town in Central Poland, located in the Mazovia region. It owes its unique atmosphere to the characteristic architecture of an industrial town. The original spatial layout of the community, which grew around a manufacturing plant in the mid-19th century, has been preserved to the present day. The historic center of Żyrardów (mostly buildings from red bricks) is the only industrial architecture complex from the turn of the 20th c. in Europe that has been preserved to modern times in full. The old settlement covers a 76-ha area in the central part of the town. Diversified architectural forms and styles characterize the city, which has resulted from the multi-cultural character of Żyrardów. The flax trade gave the town its origins. A plant manufacturing flax that was one of the largest and modern factories in Europe was established there in 1829.

Dawne domy tkaczy w Żyrardowie. Jest to zespół 6 niewielkich parterowych domków z mieszkalnym poddaszem, wybudowanych przed 1890r. na skraju dzielnicy robotniczej. Domy przeznaczono na mieszkania i małe warsztaty tkackie. Mieszkali tu tkacze sprowadzani przez fabrykantów, głównie z Czech. Wyróżnia je charakterystyczna drewniana konstrukcja ryglowa ścian poddasza, tzw. mur pruski.
Żyrardów leży w centrum Polski, na Mazowszu. Swój niepowtarzalny klimat zawdzięcza charakterystycznej architekturze miasta zaprojektowanej w połowie XIX stulecia. Zabytkowe centrum Żyrardowa jest jedynym w Europie zachowanym w całości zespołem urbanistyczno-architektonicznym miasta przemysłowego przełomu XIX i XX wieku. Osada fabryczna obejmuje centralną część miasta o powierzchni ok. 76 ha. Charakteryzuje ją różnorodność form architektonicznych i stylów, co wynika ze zróżnicowania narodowościowego mieszkańców Żyrardowa. Początek miastu dała fabryka lniarska, która powstała na terenie dzisiejszego Żyrardowa w 1829 roku. Była to jedna z największych i najnowocześniejszych fabryk ówczesnej Europy.
We all hit a wall eventually, some are more interesting than others. This was a wall of Schatz bakery in Bishop. I'm guessing there's been a lot of settling since the wall went up, hence the rippling with a few bricks falling out and needing to be replaced over the years.
It's interesting seeing a photo and realising you've been missing things...I've passed this spot in Gravesend many times and never noticed the two properties are (near ?) mirror images. Apart from their different appearances, of course. I assume they're being refurbished...
I don't think I've ever noticed them in use or what they were in use as, for that matter. I should pay attention.

I love visiting campus when I can as it is so photogenic. I look for new pictures of familiar structures such as the Chamberlain Clock Tower known affectionately as Old Joe.
Mr. Meowington is what some friends called the neighbourhood cat. Here he's enjoying the view. Such a sleepyhead, lol!
Happy new week my friends =)
For Window Wednesdays
These windows are at the front of The Sun Hotel in Hitchin, Hertfordshire. I previously posted a photo of the window at the rear of the hotel (in comments). The Sun dates back to the 16th century when it was a coaching inn. The rear is part of an extension added later. HWW
Looking and shooting through the chain link fence. This house is in an area that is being revitalized so it may be renovated.

Having parked in Luxulyan Valley's small car park, I walked the footpath along the river to reccy some Autumn compositions.
I walked a little further than I had done before - out of the woods, along a tree lined path with some long disused narrow gauge railway under foot in places. I'd guess these were a remnant of an industrial past along the river.
Along the path, I was taken by this tunnel. The diffused sunlight through a cloudy sky seemed to set off the red bricks against the greenery.
*Confession... I replaced the background through the tunnel with a shot I took earlier on the walk - as there was an unsightly roadworks sign bang in the middle of the foliage!

Uspenski Cathedral is an Eastern Orthodox cathedral in Helsinki, Finland, and main cathedral of the Orthodox Church of Finland, dedicated to the Dormition of the Theotokos (the Virgin Mary). Its name comes from the Old Church Slavonic word uspenie, which denotes the Dormition. Designed by the Russian architect Aleksey Gornostayev (1808–1862). The cathedral was built after his death in 1862–1868.
The crypt chapel of the cathedral is named after the holy Alexander Hotovitzky, who served as vicar of the Orthodox parish of Helsinki 1914–1917.
The Cathedral is set upon a hillside on the Katajanokka peninsula overlooking the city. On the back of the cathedral, there is a plaque commemorating Russian Emperor Alexander II, who was the sovereign of the Grand Duchy of Finland during the cathedral's construction. Main cathedral of the Finnish Orthodox Church in the diocese of Helsinki, Uspenski Cathedral is claimed to be the largest orthodox church in Western Europe.

Red brick corner, Buenos Aires (CABA).
Handheld shot, no tripod, old Huawei 2019.
The corner itself is not symmetrical but I centered it by eye.
Minimal edit: Brightness -1 / Contrast +1. Nothing else.
Left the cables and A/C unit on purpose to keep it natural and real.
Easier this way, no heavy editing.

I love these half-timber farmhouses with large entrance doors and cute lattice windows. Here, I found the ensemble with outhouse, fence and pebbled drive an enchanting view.

An early morning picture of 3 Snowhill which dominates the Cityscape. I cropped into the picture to highlight the building via the framing from the redbrick buildings either side
This large house is being renovated but being an older building has only relatively small windows to look out on to Mills Beach. Combe Martin, a historic and heritage-listed waterfront mansion located at 819–820 Esplanade in Mornington, Victoria. The prominent residence is celebrated for its distinct Old English-style architecture, featuring reddish-brown brickwork, striking tall chimney stacks, and a steeply pitched tiled roof. Approx 3.5million $!

Happy Window Wednesday
Dieses schöne alte Bank-Gebäude mit der güldenen Kuppel über dem Uhrturm habe ich schon unzählige Male fotografiert, aber in Kombination mit dem blauen Himmel ist es immer wieder unwiderstehlich...
Quer über die Straße, keine 300m entfernt, steht das Weiße Haus.

POSTCARDS FROM SNODLAND

As a footnote, for anyone who might be out there this weekend, I was approached a couple of days ago by the University of Sheffield in conjunction with Kodak, wanting to use my photostream as part of a research project into the use of tags as part of the photo-sharing process. Just for fun, therefore, please feel free to add your own tags at any time. The more and the weirder the merrier. Let's muck up their entire project, just for the sake of it..! Or is that childish? Who cares?
When I first saw this, I thought that the vine was the intruder, but after thinking about it, maybe man is. The earth doesn't need us, but we need the earth, it was here before and will likely be here after us.
Whenever I walk to Suffern along the Erie track
I go by a poor old farmhouse with its shingles broken and black.
I suppose I’ve passed it a hundred times, but I always stop for
a minute
And look at the house, the tragic house, the house with nobody in
it.
I never have seen a haunted house, but I hear there
are such things;
That they hold the talk of spirits, their mirth and sorrowings.
I know this house isn’t haunted, and I wish it were, I do;
For it wouldn’t be so lonely if it had a ghost or two.
This house on the road to Suffern needs a dozen
panes of glass,
And somebody ought to weed the walk and take a scythe to the grass.
It needs new paint and shingles, and the vines should be trimmed
and tied;
But what it needs the most of all is some people living inside.
If I had a lot of money and all my debts were paid
I’d put a gang of men to work with brush and saw and spade.
I’d buy that place and fix it up the way it used to be
And I’d find some people who wanted a home and give it to them free.
Now, a new house standing empty, with staring window
and door,
Looks idle, perhaps and foolish, like a hat on its block in the
store.
But there’s nothing mournful about it; it cannot be sad and lone
For the lack of something within it that it has never known.
But a house that has done what a house should do,
a house that has sheltered life,
That has put its loving wooden arms around a man and his wife,
A house that has echoed a baby’s laugh and held up his stumbling
feet,
Is the saddest sight, when it’s left alone, that ever your eyes
could meet.
So whenever I go to Suffern along the Erie track
I never go by the empty house without stopping and looking back,
Yet it hurts me to look at the crumbling roof and the shutters fallen
apart,
For I can’t help thinking the poor old house is a house with a broken
heart. Author: Joyce Kilmer
