Something new, something old

Unsure if it’s the yellow brick or how the light was shining down but for some reason I was drawn to this.

St. Louis Cathedral part 1

If you get the opportunity to visit New Orleans, you have to run into St. Louis Cathedral.  Absolutely beautiful artwork.  Here’s a shot of a mural on the ceiling.

The Bean – Black & White

I’m amazed how often people click on my blog because they are searching for information on Chicago’s “The Bean” (its real name is Cloud Gate).  I’ve posted this image before in color but honestly have never been happy with the look of the sky.  Here’s the picture in black and white.  I think I’m finally happy with the sky and background.

Looking into the sun

Shooting into the sun can always be challenging.  I really liked how this shot came out. The sunburst in the sun and the “glowing” outline of the kids.
