Saw this while walking through Galena, Illinois and could stop asking myself, "How Much is that 'Doggie' in the Window."
I promise to keep myself open to you,
to let you see through the window of my world into my innermost
fears and feelings, secrets and dreams. a part of a poem by Dorothy R. Colgane
our eyes are
the windows to our soul
they show our
innermost feelings
our fears
our dreams
we may try
and hide
this doorway
but it is not
possible
there is something
to be said
for someone
who is transparent
or lives with their
heart on their sleeve
but to truly view
a person
for who they are
look into their eyes
do not let
the clouds
dim the beauty
or let tears
wash away the
hopes that lie
inside
but look toward
the light
and see how
you sparkle
with life
show us who
you are
and show yourself
that you are worth
becoming all
you ever dreamed
of being
The 1980 New Mexico State Penitentiary riot began in the E-2 dormitory. It would be one of the worst and most violent prison riots in US history. Parts of the penitentiary were so badly damaged that they were never reopened. Evidence of the horrific violence inmates inflicted on each other are still evident, more than 30 years later. It's been the subject of several books and documentaries.

While taking photos throughout the city yesterday, I was obsess with the reflections in the windows. Windows are the views to the world :)
Today is day 11 of my 365 project, and I managed to get my post up early...sweet! So far as a result of not feeling well and extremely cold temperatures I have had to post items from my archive of photos.
The newly renovated façade at the Quality Hotel Winn in Handen makes me think about Brutalist architecture. Sure is a horrible color. But he view from inside is a good one, you have a decent view over the Rudan nature reserve.
Thames Water ( then located in Roseberry Avenue ) commissioned the striking East window to be erected by A.E. Buss of Goddard & Gibbs in 1962. The window depicts the risen glory of Christ ascending. The grey logo of Thames Water is central at the base and commemorates the building of the New River, between 1604 and 1613 by Sir Hugh Myddelton. Dame Alice Owen, a great local benefactor, is depicted on the left with the coat of arms of the Corporation of the City of London (who remain patrons of the parish today). To the right is The coat of arms of Islington and a picture of the Angel Inn one time first coaching house on leaving the city.
