I don't know why I, a life-long teacher, like this Pink Floyd song as much as I do. Perhaps it's because I never used "dark sarcasm in the classroom". For those who either enjoy the song or want to hear it for the first time, feel free to click on this link:
art created from my photos
The main image began as a brick building wall that was immediately in front of me in a parking lot. It was made of yellow bricks and (I think intentionally) created with sloppy mortar which had oozed out between many of the bricks while some seem to have almost no mortar at all, creating an interesting bas-relief pattern. (If it wasn't intentional, I think I could have done a neater job myself, despite never having laid a brick in my life.)
Yet, by itself, it wasn't terribly interesting, so I gathered some of my other photos & digital art and added textures and colors to individual bricks, but not the mortar. As simple as this seems, it took about three times as long as I anticipated. The most time-consuming part was going back at the end and removing any bits of texture or color from the mortar in an extreme-zoom view.

So I wanted this MOC flic.kr/p/YLQEXs to feature a light brick inside the cockpit, and only had one possible place for a button mechanism. I didn't want to alter the look of the gun turret/base too much, turned out I hardly had to change it, only a round tile changed to an inverted round plate.
One slope is there to push the light's trigger, the 2 others, while not absolutely necessary, keep things straight & stable. The outer ring prevents the button from falling off, as it lets the round plate pass, but blocks the slope parts. Works pretty well!
(45 degree slopes fit the trigger's slope better, but don't work any better, only use more parts)
I also have a design for a clicky flip switch, used in another MOC, if anyone is interested.
The Alcazaba of Malaga, Spain. This fortress palace, whose name in Arabic means citadel, is one of the city's historical monuments and is much visited because of its history and beauty.
The building that dates from the Muslim period is located at the foot of the Gibralfaro hill, crowned by the Arab defence works to which the Alcazaba is connected by a walled passage known as the Coracha. With the Roman Theatre and the Aduana Customs Building, this special corner offers the chance to observe Roman, Arab and Renaissance culture, all within a few yards of each other.
According to Arab historians, it was built between 1057 and 1063 at the instructions of Badis, King of the Berber Taifa of Granada. Transported material was used in its construction and columns, capitals and other materials were taken from the nearby Roman Theatre.
Brick Lane (Bengali: ব্রিক লেন) is a street in the East End of London, in the Borough of Tower Hamlets.
Today, it is the heart of the city's Bangladeshi community and is known to some as Banglatown. It is famous for its many curry houses.

There is somethig very special about a red brick barn. And, to find one with a brick silo and a brick front building, was an exciting find. I hope you like them.
Texture thanks to Anna Lenabem. French Kiss and Kim Klassen.

ci tengo a precisare,per chi non lo capisse al volo, che il muro non è stato imbrattato veramente! ho solo fatto una foto al muro originale (stranamente non imbrattato,dato che qui a Roma lo sono quasi tutti) e ci ho lavorato con CS4 ;)
Too much to fit in frame without having a wide-angle lense (and a giant brick wall preventing me moving further back!)
