Buddhist Church, Kingsburg, Ca.

I have posted this building before, but I wanted to shoot it again and see if I could get a bit of a different angle.

This is the Deloitte building in downtown Vancouver, a 24 storey commercial high rise. Each cube has four storeys. If you zoom in, you'll see that the cubes at the right are concrete - apparently, they are going to be green walls, so hopefully we will soon see plants growing up there.

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.

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

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

 

Have a nice day!

 

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

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.

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

Het Holocaustmonument (formele naam: Denkmal für die ermordeten Juden Europas) in Berlijn is een monument ter herdenking van de Jodenvervolging tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog. Het bestond uit 2711 betonblokken variërend in hoogte van 20 cm tot 4,70 meter met een onderlinge tussenruimte van 95 cm. Door een bouwfout is een blok voor onderzoek verwijderd en niet meer terug geplaatst, waardoor er nu nog maar 2710 betonblokken staan. Onder het veld met de blokken is een expositieruimte ingericht. De Amerikaanse architect Peter Eisenman heeft het monument ontworpen. Het veld met de golvende blokken roept volgens hem een gevoel van desoriëntatie en isolement op en is symbolisch voor de ervaringen van de Joodse bevolking tijdens het nazibewind.

 

The Holocaust monument (formal name: Denkmal für die ermordeten Juden Europas) in Berlin is a memorial to commemorate the persecution of the Jews during the Second World War. It consisted of 2711 concrete blocks varying in height from 20 cm to 4.70 meters with a spacing of 95 cm between them. Due to a construction error, a block for investigation was removed and not put back, so that there are now only 2710 concrete blocks. An exhibition space has been set up under the field with the blocks. The American architect Peter Eisenman designed the monument. The field with the undulating blocks evokes, according to him, a sense of disorientation and isolation and is symbolic of the experiences of the Jewish population during the Nazi regime.

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!

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.

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

Looking over 1930s rooftops at 1960s tower blocks; a different view of the suburban mix.
