In Viterbo Italy, an old wooden door with peeling green and blue paint sits in a stone archway, surrounded by a weathered orange and gray concrete wall. Intricate ironwork above the door adds a touch of elegance to the rustic facade.

P&R Fleming and Co of Glasgow maker's plate on a 1910s metal lattice-work bridge in Victoria Park in Glasgow. The company was founded as an iron merchants in the early 1800s by brothers Peter and Robert Fleming, along with their brothers-in-Law William and Matthew Strang, with their original premises at 29 Argyle Street. By the 1860s, the company had expanded to cover metal-smithing, gas-fitting, and the making lattice-work bridges, such as this one.

On a Monday, I needed to do something a little more relaxing than chores and catching up on the news. Another find from my treasure hoard of images captured in Flagstaff last summer. The quest or battles of this decorative iron "drawing" seem to have different interpretations depending on what is going on in your world when you see it. My first thoughts went to Day of the Dead skeletons trying to outrun attacks. But then I wonder if the helmets and surreal images show Nazi villains. Your guess?

Orange iron panel covers a decorative grill for the back of seating at an outdoor cafe. The quest or battles of this decorative iron "drawing" seem to have different interpretations depending on what is going on in your world when you see it. Maybe Day of the Dead skeletons trying to outrun attacks. But then I wonder if the helmets and surreal images show Nazi villains. Intricate surreal drawing and unusual rusted metal panel.

Such tramways should not be confused with the metal tramlines on which the city's trams once ran on. However, they're both part of the same rich seam of technological developments going back as far as Ancient Greece (where they were used a paved trackway to help move boats across the Isthmus of Corinth) from which tramways, tramlines and railway lines all evolved to help make wheeled transport more efficient.

An iron kerb protector and tramway on Waterloo Lane in central Glasgow. Designed to make it easier for horses to pull carts up hills on cobbled streets, these metal ones were an updated version for the older stone tramways, which can still be found on some Glasgow streets.
