    Be a little like living in the jail with all those bars, but I'm sure they're desirable as protection. Great shot for the day as always!!

    All of my windows had these when I was living in southern Spain.

    I'm guessing you took that photo while on board a moving train! Was it moving really quickly? Especially if so, great spot and snap! :D

    Slow deterioration and progressive decay of what may have been a beautiful structure!! Hope the building is strong enough to bear the extra load!!

    That would be also a rather common sight in my home country and it makes me sad that people have to cage windows, homes, lives...
    God bless you!

    Nice!
    However, I've always wondered why they'd want to mar the beauty of their flats by doing this.

    Is this supposed to be decorative, Deepak, or is it an anti-theft device?
