Got a chance recently to revisit the historic 16th St. train station in Oakland. It was just over a year to the day since my first visit, and it was kind of sad to see the condition had deteriorated even more.
Despite the efforts of the caretaker of the property, there was more grafitti, more damage, and even a small-ish fire had charred an area inside.
To combat that, cameras and motion detectors have been added to the site. As much as I dislike draconian security, it seems necessary to protect this beautiful structure.
I found the experience of seeing the accelerated deterioration discouraging and it was hard for me to feel enthusiastic about photographic the place in that state. I managed to get a few I liked...but mainly of the exterior.

These were $20 each at Home Depot. Kinda cheap looking but only thing I could find that was crystally that would work in a hallway. I love them.
Or, 'trying out the new lens.' This is our kitchen light, obviously upside-down. And it's in color, too.

After Norman worked his repair magic, we can now rest easier that the lamps will no longer be a fire hazard. The CFL's generate less heat, use less energy and the fixtures are no longer too hot to the touch.

In addition to rewiring the fixtures, Norman recommended using lower watt CFL's instead of incandescent bulbs. We used 60 watt equivalent CFL's, which generate less heat.

A few years ago I wrote a paper about the Stimson-Green mansion, on Seattle's First Hill. They let me roam around freely and take pictures for the paper. I was just telling someone about them the other day so I thought I'd upload a few of them. I wish there were more photos, but I forgot to check my camera battery before I went, so I could only take a few photos.
I can't remember what this room was called -- the "Turkish Room" or something like that? Anyway, this stunning fixture was in there. And I love the arched mirror.

"The Teatro Colón of Buenos Aires city is considered one of the best theaters in the world. Recognized for its acoustics and for the artistic value of its construction, its current building turned 100 years old in 2008. Located between the streets of Cerrito, Viamonte, Tucumán and Libertad, in the heart of the city of Buenos Aires, it was inaugurated on May 25, 1908 with the opera Aida by Giuseppe Verdi.
This building replaces the old Teatro Colón built in front of the Plaza de Mayo where today stands the Banco Nación. The construction of the new building took around 20 years, its foundation stone was placed on May 25, 1890, with the intention of inaugurating it before October 12, 1892 coinciding with the fourth centenary of the discovery of America. The initial project belonged to the architect Francesco Tamburini and, upon his death in 1891, it was continued and modified by his partner, the architect Víctor Meano, author of the palace of the National Congress. The works advanced until 1894, but then stagnated for financial reasons. In 1904, after the death of Meano, the government commissioned the Belgian Jules Dormal to complete the work. Dormal introduced some structural modifications and definitely left his stamp on the French style decoration.
At the end of 1907, the first lease of the Teatro Colón was signed, although the works of completion of the building were delayed in relation to the date set for the inauguration of the hall, on May 25, 1908. In any case, in that date was the first opera performed in the main hall of the Theater by the Great Italian Lyric Company, although with some unfinished spaces of the building such as the Golden Hall and the iron canopies on Libertad and Cerrito streets."

My wife installed a new ceiling fixture a couple of days ago. She is awesome! Plus the new fixture makes some cool looking shadows on the ceiling and the wall.
