Red pipes

The less pretty side of things. Window of Congress Hall at St. Patrick basilica in Montreal, a Gothic revival building.

#fensterfreitag #windowfriday #montreal #architecture #photography

Photograph of two windows. The small one at street level has twelve small glass squares in a white frame and is protected by a simple black grill. Someone has left a water bottle in the bottom right corner. The window above on first floor is composed of four sections with white frames. A red brick building and blue sky are reflected in them. The wall of the building is made of large grey bricks. Black stains on the brick can be seen around the smaller window. On the left side of the two windows, five bright red exhaust pipes can be seen coming out of the building.

Photograph of a inner courtyard scene featuring intricate tile work and lush greenery. In the center, there's a decorative stone fountain. Two ornate wooden doors lead to an interior space, with a silhouette visible inside. The architecture exhibits traditional Moroccan design elements. This is Palais de la Bahia in Marrakech in 2006.

#FensterFreitag #WindowFriday #montreal #church #architecture #photography

Photograph of a church facade taken from below and slightly at an angle, showing its large rose window and its bell tower, currently under renovation and held up by cables. In the foreground is a modern sculpture composed of silver-colored rods with shiny black spheres at their tips. The church is built of pink and brown bricks, the decorative structure inside the rose window is black, the sky is overcast and white, and snowflakes are falling.

Photographie de la façade d'une église prise du dessous et légèrement de biais, montrant sa grande fenêtre en rosace et son clocher en cours de rénovation et retenu avec des câbles, avec en avant-plan une sculpture moderne composée de tiges de couleur argentée avec des sphères noires luisantes à leur extrémité. L'église est construite de briques roses et brunes, la structure décorative à l'intérieur de la rosace est noire, le ciel est couvert et blanc, et des flocons de neige tombe du ciel.

I realised I've now been around here for several years and tooted a ridiculous number of things so it's time for an updated intro to pin to my profile.

I'm Joanna. I live in Melbourne on the lands of the Kulin Nation.

I'm a legal administrator for a conservation not-for-profit. It makes me really happy that my spreadsheet wrangling helps protect threatened creatures and landscapes. In my spare time I'm a (very) amateur but enthusiastic birder- I'm sure neighbours who see me pointing cameras up at trees think I'm strange. I'm obsessed with #eurovision, get a lot of joy out of trashy dance music and have been getting into #MusicalTheatre. I'm always interested in #book recommendations. I post quite a bit about things happening in #Melbourne and love discussing what might make this place better. Long walks through Melbourne make me happy. I'm an amateur #photographer, mostly of #architecture and cute animals (instagram links in bio). I'm also currently trying to learn to speak #indonesian

Some other interests I probably won't post that much about but would be interested to follow discussions on are #christian #theology and spirituality, #linguistics and Indigenous history and culture.

📷 by Artist: #KarunchaiTreetrong 🇹🇭 in Loc.: #QuarryBay / Yick Fat Building, 1048-1056 King's Rd/ #Hongkong 🇭🇰 2024 - Title: untitled - #Art #Streetart #PhotoArt #Artist #Fotografie #Architecture #Travel #Photography ➡️ #APhotoLove

Photography. A color photo of an eighteen-story skyscraper with a red double-decker bus in Hong Kong. The photo shows the lower part of a huge skyscraper with countless windows, most of which have small metal boxes for air conditioning. In front of it is a red double-decker bus with advertising (for Toshiba) and next to it a train. The wooded mountain behind the building marks a straight green line in the photo, which makes the photo special. Both fill the entire picture. On the left is the ugly gray concrete wall with countless tiny windows that form a straight cut to the impressive green of the trees on the right. The train forms a straight bottom line and the red bus stands exactly between the building and the mountain. A photo with several levels and a great view of the photographer.
Info:
The Yick Fat Building, also known as the Monster Building, was built in the 1960s. It consists of several five buildings that merge into a huge architectural complex and are all connected by a very narrow inner courtyard. It is therefore one of Hong Kong's most famous photo motifs on Instagram. Visitors call it the "Monster Building" because the buildings resemble a Transformers-like monster. It consists of 2,243 units that are 18 storeys high. Currently, 10,000 people live in the complex.

读过 Cathedral 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕
久闻大名且不负盛名的一部作品，一个花了 86 年四五代人才能完成的项目，需要有多大的集体信念感才行。中世纪营造涉及到各种工种，如采石匠、切石匠、雕刻师、水泥匠、泥瓦匠、木匠、铁匠、盖顶匠和玻璃匠，汇集了人类当时知识和技术的精华，叹为观止。

Piscine de l'exposition

Art deco "Steamline" style pool pavilion in Trois-Rivières, Canada (built in 1938)

#architecture #artdeco #fensterfreitag #quebec #troisrivieres #monochrome #photography

Black and white photograph of the top section of a symmetrical white stucco building, showing its staircase shape roof typical of this art deco style, with a brick chimney and three antennas on the four corners. On the floor level, the main entrance is partly visible, with three double doors and the words "Piscine de l'exposition" written above in capital letters. On the left side, cedar trees are hiding the building. On the right side of the entrance, the wall is pierced by a tall vertical window in three sections, the frosted glass having art deco square motifs in it.

A rather beautiful wally close in the west end of Glasgow. For those not familiar with the term, wally refers to the ceramic tiles used to line the communal stairwell (the close) of a tenement building.

Morning in the city

Apart from some little cropping, I didn't do anything to this photo. It doesn't look quite real, like a city from a comic book. That's how I feel when I go into a big city. I'm always looking for the organic, the living, the sun and the shadows, but the superposition of lines, the rectangles and the brightness of all the glass behind this old building is what I like here.

#photography #montreal #architecture

Photograph of a grey stone and green metal roof building from the 19th century, with white window frames and some sun and shadows on its façade, occupying the bottom half and right of the frame. Behind are three skyscrapers, much taller and superposed, with very straight lines and windows all reflecting the blue sky.

The old stone building is a three-story presbytery, imposing but still having that human scale feeling. Behind the skyscrapers are much more impersonal and cold. At least from my point of view.

#FensterFreitag #WindowFriday #montreal #monochrome #blackandwhite #architecture #photography

A black and white photograph taken at an angle, looking upwards, of an arched window adorned with Corinthian columns in a rectangular stone wall. The building is a kind of square tower with windows on three sides. Another similar window is therefore visible through it, as well as the ceiling decoration inside. Another, smaller window is partially visible above.

Photographie noir et blanc prise en angle en regardant vers le haut, d'une fenêtre en arche ornée de colonnes à chapiteaux corinthiens dans un mur en pierres rectangulaires. Le bâtiment est une sorte de tour carrée avec des fenêtres sur trois côtés. Une autre fenêtre semblable est donc visible au travers, ainsi que la décoration du plafond à l'intérieur. Une autre fenêtre plus petite est en partie visible au-dessus.

The joy of repetition 🔁

Back to one of my favourite abandoned buildings to photograph in Leicester yesterday.

Shot from the roof of the equally hideous Lee Circle car park. A Brutalist empire that some even refer to as a tourist attraction 🤣 If you love the smell of piss, it comes highly recommended 🤢
