Clouded Corner

People in the midwest look at the sky for two reasons; either in awe of its beauty or wondering if the storm it brings is going to kill them. Fortunately in this case, it was the former. This photo was shot at the corner of Delaware and Market in downtown Indianapolis, near the City Market.

Best if viewed large...

True Grit...Scenes From Irish Hill Part II

More photos from around the corner of Maryland and Davidson in the Irish Hill of Indianapolis...

Taken from Davidson Street; I was originally photographing the Pennsylvania Railroad viaduct in the area, and discovered this perspective of One Indiana Square.


Photographed this from a somewhat elevated vacant slab; dozens of homeless people living under these viaducts and bridges were evicted by the city earlier this year...

Beautiful Light Pollution II

Taken near the location of the previous one. I do like the former better than this one, but I like how this shot demonstrates how the light emitted from the blue LED header around One Indiana Square shoots up into a foggy sky...

Finally a Break!

Last Friday brought a well deserved respite from the brutal combination of copious amounts of snow fall and bitter cold temperatures. I took a few minutes to take a few shots at the end of the workday.

The sun started to radiate off of the street; been a while since I've experienced this.


Hallelujah!


Looking west down Market Street.


Its the City-County Building...And this is a pretty as its going to get. My apologies to the International style fans out there.

This was my favorite shot of the day...Taken from my office window.

Nocturnal reflections from One Indiana Square

I've been following the progress of the installation of the new facade on One Indiana Square. Although I have observed it in daylight where it's reflections of the skyline around it are really nice, I was curious to see what it reflects at night.

At a distance from Pennsylvania Street.

I remember looking at a rendering of how this project would look from a skyline view, there was careful attention to remove this logo (then First Indiana) from the building across the street in that rendering. The irony if nothing else is worth at least a small chuckle.

The Chase Tower is reflected quite nicely.
