My mom found a box of my old Legos. My girls had so much fun playing with them that I went out and bought more old school Legos. It took a lot of searching at Toys R Us to find a box of Legos that didn't tell you what to build with them!
Leslie Spit is essentially a semi-naturalized, man-made spit made of old construction materials -- mostly brick and cement. The eastern side of the Spit is still an active dump site for such materials. Someone had built a fort of bricks on the shore, with a tiny table and benches made of cinderblocks inside it, and pretty stones and other findings laid out on top of them.
Some little toys which are replicates of the large water puppets of Hanoi, Viet Nam, sit at the end of the little brick wall behind my woodstove. There's some notes about the things on the wall.
For Our Daily Challenge topic - 'Wall'
Concrete frame with brick and concrete/glass block infill. I'm not sure how intentional the design of this wall is (found on an alley) but I find it really beautiful--I would love to see the effect of the interior, which might be reminiscent of some of Eladio Dieste's church interiors.
Found right next to the Dennis Ruabon brick, in a front garden, Newbridge on Wye. A brick from the Wales/England border.
Stacks of bricks in a shed. I took three exposures and processed with Photomatix. The areas that would normally appear underexposed have nice detail and color. HDR doesn't always have to mean looking unnatural. I think this looks more natural than the individual components.
even death can be beautiful. this is right outside my door.... we used to have begonia's there before winter.
I've been digging up bricks and bringing them back here for over 20 years. It was worth it too, as a good amount of them are holding up my 'new' table.
I've been questioned many times on why I wrap them. Most of them are covered with dirt and/or mud when I find them. The wrapper makes them easier to lug home.
I've also been told that the 'wrapper' is not good for the bricks, as they can't breathe and will begin to dry rot. The wrappers tend to fall off in a couple years anyway. I'm using newspaper. Not plastic bags. I've never heard of bricks dry rotting anyway.
