The southernmost point in the continental USA. Posted because it’s just a kind of cool thing to have seen once upon a time, not for it’s photographic qualities. Picture taken with Olympus C-2040z, lens @ 21mm (140mm equiv), f/2.6, 1/320 sec, ISO 100
You can blame Michael for making me think of the Key West folder and the recent bout of dumb sculpture pictures. Here’s another which I don’t have a better name for than generic Key West art – looks like a painted metal snake plant to me. Picture taken with Olympus… Continue reading
Another from the Key West sculpture garden – taken years before Artprize made big, coarse, welded metal structures cool. Of course, it was also taken with the state of the art Olympus C-2040z making use of both of its megapixels to record Mr. T-Rex in such fine detail. Picture taken… Continue reading
From Key West, one of the paid beaches, I think, a nice cicada sculpture. This one was in the sculpture park very near the T-rex from a previous, very old, post. Picture taken with Olympus C-2040z, lens @ 7.3mm (40mm equiv), f/4.5, 1/800 sec, ISO 100
From the one spring break trip I did (it took until grad school) a picture of the cove off the back of our accommodation in Key West. This one took a bit of salvage since I didn’t punch in the right settings to take a panorama and it didn’t blend… Continue reading
Another older picture from MSU’s campus. This is the MSU Engineering Building in the Fall taken from the walkway between the Engineering Building and the International Center, which is actually the back side of the Engineering Building. Picture taken with Olympus C-2040z, lens @ 7.3mm (41mm equivalent), f/4.5, 1/400 sec,… Continue reading
This is probably recognizable, being the Roman Colosseum, but from the inside showing the under-floor structure. At the time I didn’t figure I’d ever be back, but as it turns out I did have a chance to visit again about ten years later. I’ll eventually look through those pictures and see… Continue reading
This is inside the Vatican Museum – it’s the Sphere Within Sphere sculpture. Apparently there are many versions of this sculpture in various settings. Picture taken with Olympus C2040z, lens @ 7.3mm (41mm equiv), f/3.6, 1/400 sec, ISO 100
It took a bit of digging to figure out what this was since I didn’t really know where to start. If I have my information correct, this is the Altar of the Fatherland in Piazza Venezia. I had no idea what it was when I took the picture. I had… Continue reading
Here’s a different arch, in a different country… This is the Arch of Constantine outside the Colosseum in Rome. There’s too much fence in the picture for it to be really good, but I felt like it went along with the Arc de Triumphe from a few days ago. This… Continue reading
