View through the top front window of a double-decker bus 🚌 (I like to pretend I’m driving 😂). If you squint I reckon it’s a bit like impressionist art 😁. Monet would be proud.
If you're not aware, Mastodon 4.2 will directly break relay.fedi.buzz, the relay many small instances like mine use to pull in posts from other instances based on hashtags used.
The cure for cockiness: write AltText. Nothing reminds me quicker how little I know about anything. 'What are those weird indentation thingys? What do you call those fancy edges? What's that shape that’s like a rectangle but has an arch on top? Wait, is it oblong? Wait, what’s the difference between an oblong and a rectangle? Is the window in a belfry, is there a bell? Oh no, maybe it’s a door not a window and I'm just spreading fake news in the Fediverse.'
Zum Fensterfreitag das Treppenhaus eines Umspannwerkes in Frankfurt. Erbaut wurde es vor fast 100 Jahren. Architekt war Max Ludwig Cetto, der später als Begründer des Modernen Bauens in Mexiko bekannt wurde. Vor 8 Jahren wurde das Gebäude im Stile Mondrians illuminiert; seit der Energiekrise ist die Illumination ausgeschaltet.
This is the northern rose window from Notre-Dame de Paris. I was there not that long before the fire. Amazingly, it seems as though all the stained glass in this photo actually survived the conflagration. This window was first made in about 1250, and most of the original glass is still in place.
