August Words #19 - Blocks

Back to La Salette church today to capture the stone blocks used to construct the building. Construction began around about 1860. I find it quite an intimidating and austere-looking building.

A lovely capture with those blocks of all sizes. =)

oh those bricks are so dark! it is fascinating to imagine working out how to fit them all into the design

[Rob Z]

I agree with you-it is definitely not a fun, cheerful place. Very solid and serious.

[Kathy]

Even in this close up view, it seems a massive building.

[Dorothy]

Wouldn’t have been my colour choice, but the pattern is well done.

[Kathy A]

I like how they are different sizes

[haskar]

Lovely pov and composition. I like how you let a little bit of the sky in. It breaks up the starkness of the church.

[Brian]

Love the POV

[Wylie]

Nice brick work

[Bucktree]

Wonderful capture of the different size bricks on this old building. Looks well built.

[Tia]

Nice interpretation

[Paula Fontanini]

The building definitely has a solemn appearance but your perspective & composition with the blue sky lightens the mood. Awesome image!
