Op art and cats / Arte óptico y gatos

La versión en español está después de la versión en inglés.

I was back yesterday at Quironsalud, our private health center to see a dermatologist. Great, helpful, useful appointment. When I was leaving the center after Tuesday’s happy nephrology appointment, I looked out the hall window and stopped for a photo. It’s a cool building. That photo is the first one below. So, I stopped at a different set of windows this time and took in some more views. Then, while waiting outside for my taxi, I took a selfie. I could probably spend an hour experimenting with the views, but I only had a moment.

Tonight we’re going to the Roman bridge with Stacy and Shannon to watch a show “featuring 150 drones to recreate a Christmas story in Córdoba.” I’m sure it will be mobbed. I’ll probably have some photos and videos.

Ayer volví a Quirónsalud, nuestro centro de salud privado, para ver a un dermatólogo. Una cita genial, muy útil y práctica. Al salir del centro después de la feliz cita de nefrología del martes, miré por la ventana del pasillo y me detuve para tomar una foto. Es un edificio chulo. Esa foto es la primera de abajo. Así que esta vez me paré en otra ventana y disfruté de más vistas. Luego, mientras esperaba el taxi, me hice un selfi. Probablemente podría pasar una hora experimentando con las vistas, pero sólo tuve un momento antes de que llegara mi transporte.

Esta noche vamos al puente romano con Stacy y Shannon a ver un “espectáculo con 150 drones para recrear una historia navideña en Córdoba.” Seguro que habrá un revuelo. Probablemente lleve algunas fotos y vídeos.

• Dudo and Moose sharing the space just like the old days. Will wonders never cease? (There was no cuddling.)
• Dudo y Moose comparten el espacio como en los viejos tiempos. ¿Será que las maravillas nunca cesarán? (No hubo abrazos).

    1. Bob:
      Moose just walked into my bathroom, yowled for a minute, came in here and rubbed his head against my leg, and now he’s gone. I think he likes to hear the echo in the bathroom.

    1. Debra:
      I hadn’t thought of op art, but it’s what came to mind to describe the visuals. I would love to spend hours wandering in an outside for different shots.

  1. Lovely photos, Scoot. I love how you can take something dreary (to me) and make it interesting. I’m not talking about the selfie or the cats when I say dreary.

  2. The ‘boys’ have probably worked out a ‘Christmas pact’ just for the holidays!
    What an interesting building with all those geometrics and angles.

  3. Dude and Moose must know it’s almost Christmas and they’re behaving themselves accordingly! Lol! I can’t wait to see photos from the drone show.

  4. Oh, I know you HAD to stop and get those images. Just way too many interesting shapes to pass up. I am so impressed that they’ve built such a gorgeous place as a medical facility.
    Your cats have absolutely mastered the disdainful gaze.

  5. ool building and photos. Reminded me of a job we did for Sun Bank in Florida, 11 floors (I think) of an interior wall system. Over 1,000 3′ x 3′ glass panes with the same geometric pattern. To clarify, not the pattern of your building.

  6. That IS a very cool building! I need to see a dermatologist again but getting an appointment here is akin to climbing Mount Everest in difficulty. (And takes even longer!) I’m sort of taking the unless-it’s-bleeding-I’ll-ignore-it approach.

    1. Steve:
      I waited 4 months I think for this appointment at our private medical center. While waiting I found a private practice that took my insurance. A complete waste of time. So, I kept this one. And it was well worth the wait. Public Health wait was even longer.

  7. While the building is too modern for my tastes, I really like how you framed yourself in the selfie! As for Dudo & Moose, perhaps they’ve agreed to a fragile feline detente in hopes of a) delicious new treats or exciting toys from Santa, or b) avoiding Krampus?

    1. Tundra Bunny:
      I’ve got eclectic taste in architecture…. well, in everything. Conniving cats!

  8. Those photos are great!
    Those drone shows can be pretty impressive. I think they’ve taken the place of fireworks in some festivities.

  9. Wow, that building!!! Comment from hubby-the-philistinewhen I showed him: “Gives me a headache!” LOL
