Photos of Dallas and from other places in my world. Sometimes I will write a bit of nonsense.
Three photos from around town. I was experimenting with some of the effects on Picassa.
Memories of last April. It makes me wonder: What is beauty, really? I know it is an old, and very tired question. I just wonder if anyone really has a definitive answer. The saying, that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, does not seem to quite fit in the age of marketing, you know the age in which a few people keep telling me what I should think is beautiful. Those people never shut up.
Happy Holidays!
Lina Bo Bardi - Service entry and HVAC equipment of the SESC, São Paulo 1982. Scan from here.
I really think this is a great approach to service equipment. Too bad most owners are too scared to try it here in the US.
Random shopping cart I ran across. It was next to the Train Station at Eighth and Corinth.
Trees found along the Trinity River Bottom. That is Dallas in the background.
Four of my shadow studies from random places.
The blog, Strangers have the Best Candy, always has great pictures.
Three shots from my Assignment 2 studies. Still have not got the hang of panning though.
I just like the Arches on this older McDonald’s in Downtown Dallas.
It never ceases to amaze me that great views of buildings are found in the most distant parking lots. I was more interested in the train tracks in this picture; but, the iconic hotel tower kept jumping into the background. The parking lot I was in is for the JFK Museum, so if you are driving this lot will get you a great view of trains and of the Reunion Tower. It’s attached to a Hyatt, I think. I know the restaurant in the tower is one of Wolfgang Puck’s ventures. It’s called Five Sixty. I hear it’s good for impressing dates.
These were placed on a public building, but were the words really needed?
A view of the Tallest Tower in Dallas from the JFK Memorial in the Founders Square just off of Market and Main.
