Rescue Me!

Rescue Me!
This week in SSC:

"Diagonal Lines in Black and White"

​This is​ the "Water, Fire & Rescue Station" here in Silverdale, Washington. I often drive by it on my way into town and I've always like the diagonal design. My neighbor Tammy works here and these workers are fantastic! :)


...and for Sight and Sound we have:

Linda Ronstadt from her self-titled album (1972)

Looks like a holiday home... but also typical.
The rescue station with me is already over 100 years old...
but not the technology and the staff. ;)

What a beautiful building; no wonder you admire it so! Excellent capture and conversion to B&W, my friend! :-)

Thanks, Val. :)

It's so nice to see a building go up that has some thought put into it for a change. We have too much ugly architecture here in Washington.

Valfal has replied to Karen's Place club
I agree, there is not much in the way of inspired architecture these days, so lovely buildings like this do stand out!

A very well chosen subject for the challenge, Karen. Impressive building and fantastic workers without any doubt! Works great in mono. A perfect musical match for sure :-) Classic Linda Ronstadt! I hadn't looked at your upload when I decided to use a Linda Ronstadt track with my entry this week.....honest :-))

Thank you for posting to Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music

Thanks so much, Roger. We are in sync! :))

Can you hear The Eagles on back-up vocals and Glen Frey especially as he echos her words? So cool!

Our gal's birthday is coming up on the 15th of July!

Roger Bennion club has replied to Karen's Place club
Yes, I can now hear Glen Frey :-) Cool and then some! I didn't know it was our gal's birthday on 15th...I will add the date to my birthday list :-)

They're doing great works all over the world and yet, unfortunately, in many places they are increasingly becoming victims of the wanton violence directed against them.
Perfectly fitting to the theme and beautifully composed picture and choice of music, Karen!
Have a great weekend.

Thank you so much, * ઇઉ *

That's good to hear that more nice buildings are going up. You can never have to much beautiful architecture.

I'm glad you enjoyed the music too. :)
