The Kearney County Courthouse is a historic building in Minden, Nebraska, and the courthouse of Kearney County, Nebraska. It was the third building to house the county courthouse when it was completed in 1906–1907. Prior buildings had been completed in 1878 and 1879. The third courthouse was designed in the Classical Revival style by architect George A. Berlinghof. Writing for the National Register of Historic Places form, Barbara Beving Long highlights the "symmetrical arrangement, monumental proportions (especially the large smooth squared pilasters), pedimented pavilions, smooth surface, and unadorned parapet, [...] the attractive roundarched entries with keystones, squared pilasters (at corners and pavilions), ground floor arcades, and the mighty central dome resting on its octagonal drum." She adds, "Rectangular windows have transoms and lack special lintel or sill treatment."
The building has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since January 10, 1990.
Eutaw, Greene County, AL USA
This is the historical Greene County Courthouse erected in 1869 is vacant and in a state of ill repair. It's located in the center of courthouse square with three other buildings on corners of the square. One of the corner buildings is occupied by the Probate Judge (tax assessor) and has been renovated. The other two buildings are vacant. It appears that court was held in this building while supporting offices were located in the corner buildings. The Probate Office is the only remaining active building of the three corner buildings.

There was a great sky in the morning I had a business breakfast downtown, and I always wanted to get a shot of the courthouse with a good sky behind it. So out came the G15 from the briefcase to grab this shot. The Fort Worth Courthouse is one of the historical architectural buildings in the city. It sits high on the bluff of the Trinity River. It was designed by Gunn and Curtiss Architects of Kansas City and it is a striking example of American Beaux Arts Design. Constructed in 1895, it was one of the first structural steel framed buildings built in the Southwestern United States. Fort Worth, Texas, USA, January 2017

Magnificent Ionic columns stand on either side of the front entrance to the historic Utah County Courthouse. This building has a symbolic sculptural group in the pediment above the entrance: the figure of Justice stands in the center; a woman sitting on the right hand side represents County of Utah. Various arts and industries are represented as well: horticulture, dairying, mining, and sheep raising. On the other side of Justice sits Provo City. She is flanked by the harp and viol, the face, the cog-wheel, a stack of books, and an artist's palette.
Best seen in large view.
This was a decoration on the corner of the Washington County courthouse in Hillsboro, Oregon... Thought it was something a little different from the normal kinds of pics for me....
The Trumbull County Courthouse in Warren, Ohio was completed in 1897. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Visited Courthouse Falls for the first time in about 3 years. Had pretty good conditions. I wasn't able to stay long and was not able to get as many compositions as I would liked. During my last visit there was a large tree lying diagonally across the falls. That is gone but there is another very large tree just a bit downstream. I used it as my vantage point for this photo. I would have liked to get out into the water for perhaps better compositions. Guess I'll just need to revisit it soon.

A quick trip to Jefferson City offered a few photo opportunities. This is the third Cole County Courthouse, built in 1897 and designed by local architect Frank B. Miller, in Romanesque Revival style.

Courthouse Falls is in the Pisgah National Forest on Courthouse Creek. The headwaters of this creek spring from the slope of a rock formation on the Blue Ridge Parkway called "Devil's Courthouse.". The falls are reached by an easy 20 minute hike once you drive the three miles up a bumpy dirt road to the trail head on Forest Road 140.
This panorama consists of 7 upright frames) I initially took enough eposures for an HDR pano, but took the easy way out. Really, the only high contrast was in the waterfall anyway. Sorry about the blowing leaves in the upper left. There was no way around that with 30 sec exposures.
Built in 1892 in the Romanesque style, the Green County Courthouse faces west and is a two story red colored brick from maiden rock and stone structure. There is a stone portico on the south front.

Courthouse Towers is a cluster of tall stone columns and spires that rise dramatically from the desert floor. Their sheer vertical faces and open sky make them one of the park’s most iconic silhouettes.
Here is another photo I recently took of Courthouse Falls in western North Carolina. Courthouse Falls is located about midway between US64 and the Blue Ridge Parkway on NC215. You'll need to take a gravel forest road three miles in from NC215. Its a short easy hike. If you go into the stream, as I did here, always watch your footing as the rocks are very slippery.
