May 23: Malmöhus 2

Further exploration around the castle.

3995

I love everything about this: the contrast of the old and new brick textures, the stout concrete casing around the ribbon windows, the complex spatial arrangement of the bridges, the subtly protruding bay window at the first level, the glimpse of the moat beyond.

3996

I also love the rhythms and formal variety of the openings and protrusions in this wall. And the bashful bike.

3998

Late gate sun.

3999

Sun half-arch.

4001

Nettles!

4003

New meets old. But look, there's a sheer glass window at the top right of the old castle. I'm not sure I ever really noticed that before.

4004

Check out the shaft of water-reflected sunlight above the full sunlight.

4005

So red and so green green!

4006

I was going to exit via this outer road, but I didn't want to rile the geese, who were, as you can see, dominating the way. So I turned around and went back into the courtyard.

4008

The glow of the sun already once reflecting off brick and thus turned extra-red.

4009

4010

Rust sun at the northwestern gate.

4011

A closer look at the same brick sun as diffused up into the vault.

4015

Geese (I think these are geese, aren't they, not ducks?) and castle. A little red-blue-green action.
