This is the last photo I was able to work on and print at New England School of Photography. I shot and developed it Monday 3/9 and started working on it Tuesday night at NESOP. I finished a couple final prints on Wednesday and expected to return on Thursday and Friday to work on a few more prints.
Unfortunately, like every other school and college in the area, NESOP shut down on Thursday (the last graduating class was still permitted access to the facilities to finish their final projects, but I was only allowed to get my prints and leave).
I posted more photos of the provess on my IG page:
He is the paramount chief of the largest tribal at Bong County in Liberia. He requested me taking the picture wearing very colorful traditional dress. His lovely smile is as natural as the surroundings.
The old Paramount Theater, rebuilt and repurposed as a mixed-use residential, academic, and performance venue for Emerson College. On Washington Street in the Theater District.
Boston's Paramount Theatre was built as a movie theater in 1932. Today it is a performing arts theater owned by Emerson College and named the Paramount Center at Emerson College.
The Paramount Theatre is a live theatre venue located in Austin, Texas. The classical revival style structure was built in 1915. The building was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on June 23, 1976

I've had this photo in my head for a year and a half. The neon of the theatre, reflections off the other buildings, dusk lighting, and, most importantly, the wet road. This is located very close to my company's office, and I walk through here every day. Ever since we moved to this office in February of 2016 I've wanted this. Last night was when the ingredients came together and I was equipped to make the photo happen. It's not perfect and I may try it again at some point but I'm still pretty happy with the result.

A panoramic photo of the Paramount Theater in Seattle, taken with an iPhone.
The stitching by the iPhone leaves a lot to be desired. However, it does capture the majesty of the interior of this theater to a certain extent. This was also my first attempt to take an interior panorama, so that might explain why the results are so meh.
This photo was taken right before the Bob Dylan concert. I would have tried to take more shots, but the camera nazis were making the rounds and threatened to confiscate my phone.
In Aurora, Illinois.
Opened in 1931. Art Deco design by Rapp and Rapp with Venetian elements. On the National Register of Historic Places.
Surprisingly, according to wikipedia, Miami has the 3rd most skyscrapers in the United States and ranks 21st in the world.
Cafe Colorature, at The Studios at Paramount, NY Street Backlot. This is a newly created photo created with Adobe Elements from a shoot on January 18, 2016. Fake pictures, of a fake city ! If you recognize these locations, leave a note.

In 1926, Paramount Pictures, one of the major American motion picture companies, built its headquarters along with a cinematic theatre right in Times Square. At the time of its completion, it was the tallest building in Times Square and its illuminated glass globe could be seen as far as New Jersey.

Recognizable to all, the Paramount Pictures logo features a mountaintop surrounded by 22 stars. Apparently, each star symbolized a real flesh and blood actor put under contract by film producer Adolph Zukor to work for Paramount Pictures. This idea is recalled in the design of the clocks, where the stars are symbolically surrounding the ”mountain-like” Paramount building.
In May of 1926, the cornerstone was laid by Mayor Jimmy Walker. He placed three copper boxes containing the front pages of New York’s morning newspapers, three five-dollar gold coins, two Paramount feature films, and newsreels of Admiral Byrd’s polar expedition. Thomas Edison sent a letter of congratulations.
Big bands became a staple of the Paramount, featuring on its stage orchestras of Tommy Dorsey, Benny Goodman, and Glenn Miller. Dean Martin, Jerry Lewis, and Frank Sinatra would later grace the Paramount stage.

Sadly, the Paramount closed its doors in 1964. As the space was converted to offices, all traces of the lavish movie palace were obliterated. The mammoth organ was moved to a Wichita, Kansas convention center. The familiar marquee that once held the over-sized cut-out of Elvis Presley and had announced the movies of Gary Cooper and Rudolph Valentino was removed and destroyed, and the chandeliers were sold.

In 2000, a large section of the Broadway office building was leased by the World Wrestling Federation, which recreated the famous arch and marquee with the Paramount logo restored and developed the space into WWF New York, a themed club and restaurant.

The Paramount Building restoration included the reconstruction of the four clocks and the illuminated globe at the top of the building. The Globe was painted black during WWII to hide it from possible enemy attack and remained that way until 2000 when it was re-lit again for the first time in over 50 years.
The WWE operation closed in 2003, and the location then became home to the Hard Rock Cafe.
The 33-story Paramount Building is an iconic presence in the Broadway Theatre District. Every day at 1:45 pm and 7:45 pm the giant clock atop the building chimes, alerting Broadway theater-goers that they have 15 minutes before the curtain call.
Richmond, BC Canada
Steveston is a residential suburb of Metro Vancouver, however it still maintains the atmosphere of a historical fishing village along the waterfront and is home to over 600 fishing boats and is still a major centre for commercial fishing.
Tourists will enjoy viewing the scenery and boats from the waterfront boardwalks, checking out historic sites such as the Gulf of Georgia Cannery Museum, or enjoying some fresh fish and chips or other local cuisine and refreshments from the many eateries along the riverfront and in the adjacent neighbourhood.

Seattle's Paramount Theatre dates back to vaudeville, where a young Judy Garland performed with her sisters in the early 1930s.

Today's nine mile ride brought me to 100 miles short of last year's 8437. Eighteen days to work with, hopefully with not too much of this white stuff.
