[livejournal.com profile] northernwalker and I were jointly swooning over our unreasonable love of wrought iron recently, and I happened to mention that a house on my street has a pretty, pretty red wrought iron fence, and she requested pictures. I just managed to remember on my way home from a walk on Sunday and so left my shopping unattended for a few moments to take some. I then realized that the house right next to it has a pretty, pretty black wrought iron fence as well.

Also - woo to the hoo! - I finally got the second mood theme to upload properly! I've no idea what I was doing wrong, though I think I had a double // when I wanted a single, but that really doesn't explain why some were working but not others, as all the line items were identical. But anyway... as a result, I am now Ecstatic - see above.

Ooo, those are nice fences! Not that it's unexpected, considering that your neighborhood is generally lovely, but those little sub-finials in the bottom photo are awesome. Something pretty to look at while dissertating!

Lovely pictures, and lovely fences. I grew up climbing on fences like those, and have a scar to prove it. There were wrought iron hitching posts, too, horse's heads on top with a ring in their mouths for the reins.

I miss the Midwest, and seeing things every day that are more than a century old :-)

You'd like Melbourne. We have some lovely wrought iron (often referred to as iron lace) from the Victorian era. :)

Both fences are quite nice - I do like a wrought iron fence too. They always have such lovely curlycues and designs.

And good for you for getting the mood theme to work! Computers are weird.
