Shows the enduring characteristics of politicians, doesn't it !<br /><br />Thank you, Farmchick !<br /><br />I totally agree, Cat. Why can't functional and beautiful both be applied to a building !Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07483295526635664974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474956084018858907.post-53422969430011824642011-02-25T23:38:35.102-05:002011-02-25T23:38:35.102-05:00Thanks, Dawn.

I have to agree on the architecture bit - today's designs seem to focus just on the functional and very little on beauty for the sake of beauty - that's why I loved all the old(er) buildings in Europe ! (I knew a bit of the history but checked out some more - I learn a lot that way ;-)<br /><br />Thanks, Darlene - there are a lot of beautiful buildings in Kingston. I hope it is true that prisoners built the buildings - beats rotting in a cell and might even instill a little pride ! No - I used a tripod for this since it was getting later in the day. I do have a polarizer but rarely use it - and not on this shot.<br /><br />Thank you Magda - have a great weekend !<br /><br />Thanks, Soraia. Enjoy your weekend too !Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07483295526635664974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474956084018858907.post-68013015211036062011-02-25T19:25:31.935-05:002011-02-25T19:25:31.935-05:00It's a beautiful building...I wish that kind o...It's a beautiful building...I wish that kind of charm was still in fashion...construction these days seems to be so boring for public buildings.Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03872899189875117518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474956084018858907.post-101929114799056942011-02-25T19:07:34.067-05:002011-02-25T19:07:34.067-05:00A beautiful structure!A beautiful structure!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10123691580195879542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474956084018858907.post-61982213328653925832011-02-25T14:14:21.024-05:002011-02-25T14:14:21.024-05:00Thank you for the insights, and YYYEEESSS some thi...Thank you for the insights, and YYYEEESSS some things LIKE MONEY ISSUES FOR INSTANCE never change . . . :-D<br /><br />Great architecture ;-)<br /><br />Greetz,<br /><br /><br />JosephAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06672844177521365971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474956084018858907.post-50280452476399063282011-02-25T11:52:10.248-05:002011-02-25T11:52:10.248-05:00It's a beautiful building with an interesting ...It's a beautiful building with an interesting history.

I never did see this one but it's stunning. I'd heard that back in the day it was the prisoners who did a lot of the labor to erect a lot of the limestone work, do you know if there's any truth to this? Regardless of who erected the buildings it's stunningly beautiful and a place I'd love to revisit one day. <br /><br />Your photo is amazing, were you lying on the ground to take this? ;-) It looks like you were at least squatting down and the angle is awesome, the light is fantastic and the color is so clear or would precise better describe this? Either way it's a magnificent shot. Do you use a polarizer filter by chance?darlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04886502544010479581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474956084018858907.post-27582686085035912512011-02-25T01:34:21.580-05:002011-02-25T01:34:21.580-05:00And THESE are some of my favorite places...that ch...And THESE are some of my favorite places...that charm draws you in. Amazing architecture....back when "architecture" was beautiful. (I'm thinking it isn't so much now days...at least not my style;)<br />Really like this building- thanks for the short history lesson!Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07040738593336836064noreply@blogger.com
