(full colour mix) Coleyville country. ...from an Easter Monday drive with Ernie to Rosevale, via Coleyville, and up the Kerwitz Road. Ernie is 91 and retired from his diary farm in the area about 34 years ago. There are changes in farmers' approaches in the area as the diary industry structurally adjusts to a modern economy. There are very few diary farms left. Most of the land has been given over to beef cattle (as with this one), horse studs and hobby farms. Whether or not this is a good thing remains to be seen...

I like to think this photo has the feel of a scientific abstract image taken by the great photographer Berenice Abbott (1898 to 1991).

Sometimes you think nothing is a coincidence. Moments after finishing this GIMPed abstract of "The Wave", I saw a photograph that had many similarities. So I copied the very suitable title of that photo.

The incredible concentration of cast-iron buildings in SOHO New York are one of the distinctive features of this Manhattan neighborhood. The fact is district is referred to as the SOHO Cast-iron Historic district and is the home to the largest collection of full and partial cast-iron building on the entire planet. Cast-iron had been a key component of bridges but here in the part of the country in this city, cast-iron was not only used structurally for the buildings but as part of the facade as well. This New York developed innovation was used extensively as cast-iron edifices was less expensive to build than stone or brick and were much faster to build and fabricate as the components were made in molds rather than hand carved. They have held up amazingly well as most of the approximate 250 cast-iron buildings in New York were built between 1850’s to late 1800 so are well beyond the 100 year mark. This image show a rather typical cast-iron design, repetitive elegant columns up and down the entire façade. - [ ] #developportdev @gothamtomato @developphotonewsletter @omsystem.cameras #excellent_america @apple #iphone13pro @bheventspace @bhphoto @adorama @tamracphoto @tiffencompany #usaprimeshot #tamractales @kehcamera @nycurbanism @nycprimeshot @nybucketlist

A 'straight out of camera' photo from my recent walk around central London. The skies were that blue, the plane was that high, and the 'M' hotel by Montcalm (London EC1), on the right, was that angular.
