📷 Dark Green Dark #Scape #ForestFriday #ECK #green

Nine details from a shadowed forest: bare stems, ferns, and vine-circled sky; speckled leaves, a broken trunk in mist, moss climbing bark; textured bark, a fallen fork, and slender trunks backlit through haze. Muted greens and near-black.

📷 The Brick Man #WallsOnWednesday 1920s, Alt-Treptow, Berlin (--> for details, see ALT text)

Expressionist brick sculpture of a stern male figure emerging from a red clinker-brick wall under a cloudy sky. The fragmented geometric body blends into the facade of the historic former ABOAG bus depot in Berlin Alt-Treptow.

In 1872, the Beermann Agricultural Machinery Factory, founded in 1859, moved to the site at Eichenstraße 4. This industrial site, situated between the River Spree and the Landwehr Canal, was taken over in 1924–25 by the Allgemeine Berliner Omnibus-Aktien-Gesellschaft (ABOAG), which used it for the construction and repair of buses. In 1928, the main workshop was built to a design by Alfred Warthmüller and Franz Ahrens. During the GDR era, the VEB Kombinat Auto-Trans Berlin was based on the site at Eichenstraße 4. The site was located in the restricted zone of the East-West border. Since the 1990s, the site, including the hall, has been used by the ‘Arena’ as an event venue (Susanne Kähler).
