Theme Day - Smell


The past has a musty, stuffy smell of windows not opened enough, of sunlight not streaming enough, and fresh air not wafting enough.


The main entrance, on Bridge Street, of The Industrial Relations Commission of NSW, in part of the Chief Secretary's Building, constructed between 1873 and 1893..

The ironwork is so beautiful I almost forgot about "smell."

Kay said...

I agree with Kate. It's such a beautiful building I'd not think about the smell...until, of course, it arrived at my nose. Good post!
