CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge

[Tev62]

The UK have an enviable record of protecting historic buildings and those that are not so historic but unique. If these buildings get knocked down they are gone forever and it is great to see this example standing. Bike looks well.

Nice perspectives DBM.

Is the rear box permanently mounted? The snaps would have been maybe even better with the box briefly laid aside. Your black beauty is strong contrast in all the pose settings.

I enjoyed the challenge this month. Since a few weeks I was willing to go and take a few pictures of the Saint-Egrève old swimming pool, before it is destroyed - sooner or later it will be replaced by some new buildings, as Saint-Egrève town has built a new swimming pool, just finished end of last year. So the monthly challenge was a good trigger for me to go and record these images...
Saint-Egrève is the large town besides my village, in Grenoble area. So I had only a few miles to ride. I like these paintings, all along the outer walls of the old swimming pool changing rooms...

On the way back to home, there is also this painting dedicated to the "33" bus line, which was passing there, at the Saint-Egrève climbing rock area:

And I like also this more recent paint, on a new apartment building, not far from my home...

All my pictures taken during this short ride can be seen in this album - including two panoramic views of the old swimming pool walls... I recently found that "Hugin" software gives good results for pictures assembly, while all the other software I had tested before were always a bit disappointing.

Great pics as usual Delphisa. Beautiful art work and bike

First ride this year. This is on the side of a building of a local business that sells window blinds....called “The Blind Wizard”.

Some great pictures, I'm going to struggle to match anything like those, wall art is pretty scarce in Ireland (apart from Northern Ireland where there is some really iconic stuff). This is the best I could do in my area. On the outskirts of my town, besides the main road into it, there is this concrete ball structure and most people in Ireland know off it. The wall art makes out it was an asteroid from outer space put there by aliens.

 

[GoldOxide_imp]

Nice effort Tev. I like the concrete ball - unique.

 

[cj599_imp]

Very neat tev!!!
