Description

Vintage 1860, Plymouth, Ohio. There aren't a lot of these old brick buildings left unless they've undergone extensive refurbishing...old mortar tends to return to its' basic components (mostly sand and lime) and crumble. This building gives evidence of some tuck pointing (surface patching of the old mortar between the bricks). Thanks for stopping by. Bill

Superb shot of this beauty. You think they would repoint the lot, well worth it.

Move to the UK Bill, plenty over here. Beautiful building probably built at a time when cost wasn't the leading factor.

What a beautiful old building! Looks like they've been taking good care of it. Your photograph is great - that blue sky is a striking backdrop!

You have done a really fine job with the colours, my friend. Nice, bright, vivid! Great POV as well. Well done. The Quiz was a Me110 by the way....you were right! Good call! Rob.

Very nicely seen. Wonderful contrasts and that gorgeous blue sky. Just like we have today. That trim paint really sets off the design, too.

High tech in its time...and some great colors in the image...

It looks nearly new to me. Such a great job of patch I hardly noticed it. Our old brick buildings here in town are slapped back together, sometimes in the most horrid ways. :-) Gorgeous upward view.

Stellar POV, clarity, colors, lighting and textures in this magnifico capture, Bill! Ornate edifice, built just in time for the Civil War. Contrasts well against the relatively dark sky.
