It's been long since I last joined the tag challenge. As I was uninspired by my own tags, here is one for the host's choice: flora + building + shadows https://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/46164/186th-tag-challenge
The shadows of the past (far fetched, but it is my interpretation) combined with the floral decorative elements make if this building a fascinating one. It is called the zodiac house. It is splendidly decorated.
@yaorenliu It's the missing glass that made me add in 'shadows'. Because that part of the buildings seems forlorn. Some other windows are very well taken care of.
you have the right interpretation of shadow. this is a beautiful example of creativity and skills from long ago. you don't get to see elegant stuff like this anymore in this days of prefabricated everything and even when they 'copy' styles like this, they don't project the elegance that has once been. aces!
@summerfield Oh, yes Vikki. That is oh so true. What amazes me is that authorities don't mind spoiling a beautiful elegant city scape with those glass and concrete horrors. Take London, for instance. They are amazing pieces of technology, I guess. But they are UGLY. They belong to the outskirts, not to that beautiful historic downtown.
@monikozi so much building, we stood on Waterloo Bridge and no St Pauls! Lots of cranes around The Thames!! Next time im up there, I'll take a photo for you!
