great colours

Thanks, frii!

You call it old?

these are hand made engineering bricks, they are quite old, maybe around 80 or 90 years, maybe even a little more.

very nice

how is this a close up?

They're handmade brick that look like they were relayed. It's not unheard of either. Sometimes old bricks are salvaged from old buildings just to get relaid into a wall. People like the old look. You probably could have got closer.

nice image -- like how the central focus makes the mortar lines seem to go in two directions

Those tiles are made in sweden! *proud* i like the lines but the photo could need som more brightness.

great shot, but too dark.

looks like you took this on a bad day.

Not really a closeup

yeah i was only in sydney for a couple of hours that day before i left cant change the weather

the theme calls for close up shots of the materials used, not the wall itself.

The first line in the contest reads as "This contest is about structures. Not buildings".

Sorry author, but it's obvious this is a building.

picture changed guys, hope this is a better option

better shot, but still too dark and lacking in contrast.

I was going to say the same thing, Friiskiwi. Play with the contrast or curves.

not a close up

certainly has the HDR look

wow! good luck is beautiful!

Thanks nanaris !!!

Interesting! Nice composition and the Earth tones really make it.
