Mistreated Modernism.
A gorgeous mid-century building being let down by those that just don't care.

A window of the Little Red Schoolhouse at the Lost Villages Museum. The clocks turn back an hour this weekend making for an even earlier sunset along with the Autumnal decline of the sun.
moonlight filters thru the empty windowframe of an abandoned gold mill in california's mojave desert. nikon D7000 + nikkor 10-24mm. 2 minute exposure under full moon inside a pitch-black building. light painting with red gel and LED flashlight.
Complete with intriguing hand print. Spotted in the town of Aigues-Mortes in the Camargue region of southern France. Zoom in to check out the holder that keeps the shutter open.
HWW!
Fragile fronds press with increasing insistence against frail windowframes.
I suspect that one day they'll win.
'If you tell me a lie I'll cry for you,
Tell me of sin and I'll laugh,
If you tell me of all the pain you've had,
I'll never smile again.'
From the song 'Phantasmagoria in two' by Tim Buckley.
The lamp that shone through the window intrigued me, as did the lovely reflections of tree branches. Taken at Seniors Building opposite as I walked past it. Even a bit of the sunset could be seen reflected in the window - actually re-reflected from our building to that one, since the sun sets behind this scene at the front of the building.

"Through the fish-eyed lens of tear-stained eyes
I can barely define the shape of this moment in time
And far from flying high in clear blue skies
I'm spiraling down to the hole in the ground where I hide...
...and if I show you my dark side
will you still hold me tonight?
And if I open my heart to you
and show you my weak side
What would you do?"
— Pink Floyd (Roger Waters)
The ladybug landed on a coaster, designed with flowers that I keep on my window sill. The coaster was made and designed by my Mom many years ago when she enjoyed a new art form in her Golden Years. The decoration is a bit worn and faded, but I think it adds to the beauty.
It is a keepsake along with other artwork she created, all very late in life through an art program in the senior's home she lived in for many years. I treasure everything she made! My mom claimed she had no artistic talent, but that is not true.
Post war, Modernist structure.
A target for graffiti and associated defacement.

there are a couple of these stone houses still standing at the location of the historical crossing point of the Colorado River north of Grand Canyon. It is wonderful that they have been kept and in repair all these 100+ years. The current use of the area, besides its historic designation, is the launch point for river rafting trips down the Colorado and through the Grand Canyon

A short, pathless walk from the forestry track took us to the remains of the farmhouse and buildings of Achnababan.
According to some quick research this might be a window of the old farm office.
Happy Windows Wednesday and Happy Bokeh Wednesday too! ;o)
Some small chrysanthemums looking wistfully out into the garden - or are they admiring their own reflections in the window itself? Not quite sure!

Something doesn't quite add up with what's on the roof and what's hiding underneath.
