In the wee hours I'll meet you
Down by Dun Ringill
Oh, and we'll watch the old gods play
By Dun Ringill
We'll wait in stone circles
'Till the force comes through
Lines joint in faint discord
And the storm watch brews
A concert of kings
As the white sea snaps
At the heels of a soft prayer
Whispered

Facade of "Haus Neuerburg", a building designed by architect Fritz Höger in the late 1920s for a cigarette factory in Hamburg-Wandsbek. It constitutes one of the finest examples of the so-called "brick expressionism".

The Park Tower Knightsbridge Hotel, formerly the Sheraton Park Tower. Opened in 1973 - Architect: Richard Seifert - Photo taken in July 2016.
Centre Pompidou / Paris
It is the largest and most important museum of modern art in Europe. It is featuring the late 19th-20th century art. with over 50,000 works, including movements from Fauvism, Cubism, Surrealism and Abstract Expressionism.
The escalators are located outside the building, with a nice look over Paris. The building looks very futuristic, with all of its internal facilities – air conditioning, elevators and pipework – on its façade!.
Post processed with LR. Mainly increased contrast and I used dehaze. This led to the enhanced blues not only in the sky.
HSS! Happy sliders Sunday!

A magnificently curved building in Manchester, England.
This is Gateway House, completed in 1969. Architect: Richard Seifert.
Detail shot of Musée d'Orsay, an art gallery in Paris, France, on the Left Bank of the River Seine. It is housed in the former Gare d'Orsay, a Beaux-Arts railway station built in 1898 - 1900.
The station was designed by three architects, namely Lucien Magne, Émile Bénard and Victor Laloux.
I understand that the building ceased being a railway station in the 1970s and, at one point, it was threatened with demolition.
The museum officially opened in December 1986.
Photo taken in May 2026.
Squint a little and you'll understand immediately what Jackson Pollock's abstract expressionist paintings were all about. Art mirrors nature even in its more abstract sense.

"L'esilio dell'anima verso l'ignoto" è una potente metafora artistica che affonda le radici nella filosofia antica (Platone vedeva il corpo come una prigione dell'anima) e si manifesta in varie forme attraverso i secoli, simboleggiando la condizione umana di alienazione, la ricerca spirituale e il confronto con l'ignoto o l'aldilà.
L'esilio è visto come un "paradigma dell'esistenza", un viaggio incessante che allontana da un punto di origine ma mantiene una costante ricerca di un "luogo dell'anima" in cui sentirsi a casa. Il confronto con l'ignoto e la mortalità ha portato gli artisti a esplorare la possibilità della trascendenza o della liberazione spirituale, come nel caso di T.S. Eliot e la sua svolta verso la religione, o di artisti che vedono l'arte come un modo per guardarsi dentro. Movimenti come il Simbolismo e il Surrealismo, che si oppongono al realismo per creare mondi fantastici e onirici attraverso allusioni simboliche, sono particolarmente adatti a rappresentare concetti astratti come l'anima e l'ignoto

A fanciful piece...I digitally "carved" this earthen city out of a photograph I took of a mountain side in Cedar Breaks, Utah.
The new Design Museum in Kensington opened in November 2016. The building was formerly the home of the Commonwealth Institute and it was opened in 1962. The architects were RMJM (Robert Matthew Johnson Marshall). This photo shows a section of the original roof structure.
This photo was taken in Toronto back in October 2017. I've posted square photos of this building on here, but not this one, until now.
The building is 'Exhibit Residences'. Architect: Rosario “Roy” Varacalli

Another landscape version of the ‘Cheesegrater’, a car park in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England. It was designed by architects Allies and Morrison.
In 2009 it won a RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects) Regional Award. These awards are given to UK buildings for their regional architectural importance. In 2013 it gained third place in the 'World’s Coolest Car Park' awards.
Photo taken in June 2025.
Here is another photo of mine showing a building in London by the same architects: flic.kr/p/Ts4f8Y
Suprematism is an early twentieth-century art movement focused on the fundamentals of geometry (circles, squares, rectangles, triangles). The term refers to a form of abstract art based upon "the supremacy of pure artistic expression" rather than on a visual or literal depiction of objects. It is entirely subjective and gives room to the artist to present what they think or perceive versus what they may see.
