Reflections

How many times have I walked past this building! But today I noticed that the brickwork reflects the patterns of the bark of the paper birch trees! Another 365 discovery!

Oh wow, it really does. I wonder if that was intentional, and which came first.

Amazing what we discover when we have a camera in our hand ! Before I read your narrative I did spot the resemblance ! Wonderful Heather!

@tinley23 I've been wondering this, too, Lesley. This building is part of St. Michael's College, University of Toronto. It was built in 1954, but I can't find any reference to the birch trees. I imagine, though, that they came after...but, maybe they were part of the original plan along with the building. I'm not good at aging trees.

Don't they go together so well Heather definitely intentionally I think.

They do look lovely together a designers dream choice I would say. Well spotted and a great capture.

I like the patterns and the harmony of the colours.

[Joanne Diochon]

They certainly do match, great eye to catch that. I too wonder if it was intentional I don't think that is a usual pattern of stone work so it seems as if it might be.

Ah yes, these are the paper birch that you posted on the same day that I posted paper birch. This is a great shot Heather and I see what you mean about the brickwork reflecting the patterns in the bark of the trees. Well spotted.
