Heading into the city in search of triangles for April's theme I was a little worried that it may not be that easy.. When really looking I couldn't believe how many times the triangle features in Perth architecture, old and new. Discovering that the triangle pointing upwards is a strong masculine sign the BHP Billiton offices above takes on an almost phallic presence n'est pas :) but if you look at the Central Park building in the background below there's a whole lot of triangle action going on also!
.... and then there's the triangle that hasn't any mystical powers at all, it's simply a quiet place to sit and enjoy a restful moment in the middle of the city bustle, although this gent is sitting at the pointy end, is he silently 'recharging' his masculine energy before tackling a difficult situation :) Happy Monday, we are having a wee bit of rain so all good, take care...
Looks like a nice spot for a rest, and yes... those towers are phallic!
ReplyDeleteExcellent choices for the theme day, Grace!
I think we will see triangles all over the place from now on. Love the green seat.
ReplyDeleteArchitectural strength in triangles.
ReplyDeleteSuccess. Now I am wondering how far I would have to travel to find a triangle?
ReplyDeleteI'd like to try Perth's angles some fine day ♥. Aloha
ReplyDeleteExcellent post. Not sure about the phallic references, though. Seem too triangular! :)
ReplyDeleteI will have to look out for triangles.
ReplyDeleteGood catch, Grace.
ReplyDeleteI'm coming to Perth this week and will be looking out for triangles now, as well as everything else on the long list . . . . how very interesting this is Grace: now how about the soft roundness of womanhood, for we can't be over-run can we, haha! Glad you also have had rain! Joy x
ReplyDeleteClever post, Gracie.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely triangles!
ReplyDeleteNice theme day finds. I really struggled with this one.
ReplyDeleteThe design in the first building is unusual but not unique. It's wind bracing. We have a very similar one in downtown STL.
ReplyDeleteWell as usual you knocked it out of the park Grace. Not one but TWO great choices.

Lovely pics as usual. Love that "green" seat!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you mentioned the phallic angle of the photo, my first thought with your "masculine" description. . . I never know whether or not I should mention it when I see one. Great find and description.
ReplyDeleteThanks for pointing out the phallic look of the building! Haha! Nicely captured triangles
ReplyDeleteBoth are great.
ReplyDeleteSometimes , things appear only when we look for them .This theme idea allowed you to see something you never noticed before! Great pictures!
ReplyDeleteVery dominant triangles in the BHP building Grace. I was wondering what I was going to post for this months theme and was amazed to see so many triangles once I began looking through my "To be blogged" collection. Cheers J.
ReplyDeleteI didn't expect anything less than brilliant here today! That bench is amazing, I wonder if VP will grab it!
ReplyDeleteThere are lots of triangles in the building that is in the masthead of your website.
ReplyDeleteYou will be over in my city in 10 days, eh? Is that when your little duo becomes a triangle?
ReplyDeleteThat is a lot of triangles. And some of them are feminine I should point out.
ReplyDeleteA fine selection of triangles and observations!
ReplyDeleteTowers, pinacles and triangles are all very masculine I agree. There are lots in Paris, starting with the Eiffel Tower, of course!
ReplyDeleteHad no clue about all those triangels on the blogs suddenly, but I like the man sitting on his triangle!
ReplyDeleteYou did it again! Great shots. We even have rain up here.
ReplyDeleteFabulous interpretations, I love the last one especially, Grace.
ReplyDeleteYou found some super examples of triangles, Grace!
ReplyDeleteYou found lots of triangles! I love that building.
ReplyDeleteYou found a really striking set of triangles and a lovely one at the end.
ReplyDeletei am laughing and nodding and thinking you are so clever! xo
ReplyDeleteGreat, clever - and funny shots, Grace - love that bench! Where is that?
ReplyDeletenice theme serie ! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat triangular finds! I especially like that bench. So cool!!!
ReplyDeletePS: The hubs liked what he saw of Perth. :) Wish I could have been there with him.
Great triangles Grace!!! And how interesting that you found the bench triangle...looks like it was at coffee spot...
ReplyDeleteHaha! great---the last one I mean. MB
ReplyDeleteYou certainly had no problems finding a variety of triangles!!
ReplyDeleteWell, you certainly found some triangles! I usually prefer old buildings over new ones. This one I like though!
ReplyDeleteGreat architecture photos, Grace, but I love also the last photo, even the guy sat there doesn't look so happy :)
ReplyDeleteYou found some great triangles, Grace!
ReplyDeleteOutstanding, Grace!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you hit a jackpot in your triangles search. That center shot takes in a lot of angles. That last green triangle is an interesting take, too. Great job!
ReplyDeleteWonderful triangles in Perth's skyline! It is interesting how important the triangle is as a structure component in architecture. Lovely blue skies, too!
ReplyDeleteBises,
Genie
Those are all wonderful Theme Day shots Grace! I know you must be excited about the new little one. Get ready to fall in love!
ReplyDeleteYour first image of the strongly masculine building is a fine homage to triangles.
ReplyDeleteMagnificent post, the last one is a peaceful and beautiful image, I try to imagine how it would look in B&W! Cheers
ReplyDeleteYour title says it all.
ReplyDeleteWhat a find!
ReplyDeleteUnique triangel bench!
Well seen and well made:)
The stunning discovery, as many triangles - and you were worried about your you do not find anything.
ReplyDeleteNice shot.
