Ramblings of a retiree in France
Bit of a tricky challenge this week. While I take photos of lots of buildings, they’re rarely industrial. I’m definitely going to have to sort through my archives. As you can see from the photos below, I’ve had to be pretty liberal with the use of industrial to cover repurposed buildings and industrial looking structures.
Atomium building in Brussels constructed in 1958 for the World Fair, now a museum.
Sydney Harbour Bridge: heritage-listed steel bridge carrying rail, vehicular, bicycle and pedestrian traffic.
Former railway station Gare d’Orsay which now houses museum of the same name
Properties formerly used in the leather and wool trades line the Agout river running through Castres
Eiffel Tower constructed as the gateway to 1889’s World Fair
Part of the city of arts and sciences, Valencia
Le Carreau du Temple, Paris, repurposed as an exhibition space in 2014.
Dredging on Jumeirah Beach, Dubai
As a way to brighten our weeks, each week Dr B from Buddha Walks into a Wine Bar is selecting a single theme to point our cameras at or to encourage us to display a few photos from our collections.
If you would like to join Dr B in #challengeyourcamera then here’s what to do:
1. Follow Dr B (link above) to discover the chosen weekly theme.
2. Select or take a few photos related to the week’s theme
3. Post your own photos that week, on any day you like.
4. Include a caption with each photo so we all know what/where it is
5. Include a ping back/link to Dr B’s blog in your post so that he’s notified, can follow you back and can appreciate and comment on your choices.
6. Include the tag #challengeyourcamera
In addition:
1. Dr B will follow you back
2. He will encourage other posters to follow you
3. He will list each blogger in my weekly post
Well done I guess that took a bit of trawling around!
