#117 Flat roof houses

Thies houses fascinate me, see them on my way to work on the bus sometimes, tampered about with this shot a little to try make it look a bit vintage yet keep the sunlight, it was a very sunny day. Think they date from the 40's? Not really an expert architecture spotter, but there is also a block of flats at the end of the row in a similar design, and they are quite different from the surrounding housing, will get back to these later.
They remind me a bit of pictures I`ve seen of avant-garde architecture form the 30s. Nicely composed, and you did manage the vintage look without sacrificing the sunshine. It occurs to me that Hercule Poirot, Agatha Christie`s detective, could have lived very happily here, as he liked everything square and neat.

Sorry again for the slow response. For this weeks push, use the self timer feature and take a full body self portrait in a nice environment. :D have fun.
I'm pretty sure your camera has this, if not you can use a mirror/ reflection portrait :D have fun.
