Although I still have many unpublished shots, it is now time to terminate my homage album dedicated to Notre-Dame. So, the final photo will be this girl admiring the model of the cathedral. I hope the roof repairs will preserve the spirit of this more than 850 years old monument.
While I waited for taxi, I looked up at tall towering buildings around me in downtown Seattle, Washington, USA.

A runner, my bike and the city hall. This is selected from my archives. I like to have a photo biking on Sunday morning with my mountain bike.
This is an in-camera two-image multiple exposure of a covered carpark roof at Bristol Temple Meads railway station. One of the images is with the camera held upside down.
I brewed it for Sliders Sunday like the latte I had nearby but in Nik Color Efex. There was a bit of solarisation, a bicolour filter, a blur vignette and some other things in the magic. It was processed from the raw in PhotoLab first.
As usual, it was the symmetric geometry that appealed to me and the abstraction created by the multiple exposures.
Thanks for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Sliders Sunday :)
- and my perpetual dilemma any time I venture into BW: shall I discard the colour version? Most of the time I can't...

Lyons was first a railroad worker's camp called Pennington when the Gulf,Colorado and Santa Fe Railroad came through in 1880. W.A. Lyon granted a right-of-way to the railroad and became the town's namesake. It was called Lyon's Station then shortened to Lyons. In the late 19th Century,Lyons supported a hotel.four stores,a livery stables and a newspaper....all of this for a population of about 150 people. The town never prospered and is now an unincorporated community with its own post office. This well preserved sign is on one of the original surviving brick buildings,an abandoned dry goods store, and I'm thinking it's at least from the very early 1920s. Lyons,Texas. 8.14.2018.

I really loved to work with reflections in Amsterdam, and the canals are the best playground for working with reflections.

Farmers and Merchants National Bank is a historic lending institution in Downtown Los Angeles. As the regions first great indigenous bank it is known for both its architecture and its pivotal role in the economic development of early L.A.
The Farmers and Merchants National Bank was founded in 1871 by Isaias W. Hellman, who was a successful merchant, real estate speculator and banker, and also by John G. Downey, the seventh governor of Los Angeles. The bank was started with only an initial capital of $500,000 from 23 prominent Los Angeles businessmen, with the largest investments coming from both Hellman and Downey.
Isaias was a cautious lender, insisting that major borrowers have good moral character and provide good security. The bank's subsequent presidents continued Hellman's conservative practices and as a result, the bank survived every panic from 1873 through the Great Depression. However, as a single-branch Downtown bank it was eventually recognized that it was unlikely to grow. In 1956, it merged with Security First National Bank, which later became Security Pacific National Bank, and ultimately was acquired by Bank of America. Built in 1905, the bank was designed by the firm Moran and Wells. Designed in the Classical Revival style, the Farmers and Merchants National Bank remains one of Southern California's finest examples of the early "temples of finance", which were popular at the turn of the century. Its two-story façade, reminiscent of a Roman temple, is punctuated by an entrance framed with Corinthian columns topped by a large triangular pediment.
Much of the original banking room remains, including light fixtures, a central skylight, and the loggia with its Victorian-style railings. Operating as a bank until its closure in the late 1980s, the building now functions primarily as a special events and banquet facility and film location.
I had wanted to shoot this angle before i even saw this lighthouse because a good while back I had heard a story about how a photographer i really respected had arrived here in the midst of a bunch of other photographers - picked this one angle and took one shot that just "nailed it" - once i heard that story i had to try this angle out. So this one's for him...
