Do you like plazas!

In downtown Zanesville, Ohio, on November 28th, 2020, on the north side of Market Street, east of North 6th Street.
The Muskingum County auditor asserts that the building is from 1900. I find this suspect, a too-conveniently round number. But the building does not appear on the 1895 Sanborn fire insurance map of Zanesville, so I guess I am willing to accept that it was built circa 1900?

With deep texture and natural colors, the Ledgestone Pole Base was a perfect fit to match the existing color of the cultured stone on the Big Boy exterior walls. Products shown: Light pole base in Ledgestone texture
An early morning in the French Quarter before the crowds arrived.

In light of the 10 year anniversary of Katrina's destruction of the Gulf coast, I thought I would re-post some pictures I took when I went to New Orleans in 2006, about 4 or 5 months after the storm. We were filming a series of television PSAs for the NCAA. They went in some of the devastated communities and rebuilt athletic fields so that students could get back to some normalcy.
They were just limping back when we got there. Down in the lower 9th ward and surrounding neighborhoods, people were starting to build their houses back. Many didn't have flood insurance, so they had to foot the bill. You could hear power saws and hammers all day long. On about every block, there would be one house with a perfectly manicured lawn and beautifully restored home - they had flood insurance. The rest of the houses were gutted of the moldy drywall. You could see the water line on the outside of the house. Some homes had FEMA trailers parked out front.
I had never been to New Orleans before. The hospitality we received and vibrance of the people was amazing. I can't wait to get back there.
Standing in the middle of an icy boulevard during a blizzard on a freezing cold day. Probably not that smart really.
Trip to Glasgow. I was on my way to the transport museum and saw this old man walking along and HAD to take a photo. I did the whole "Pretend to take a tourist shot"
Captured this image after stopping along Howard Street in the SOMA district (South of Market street) in San Francisco after I had dropped my Melody at her work place one Saturday morning. This is the only day of the week I take my bride to her work location in the Union Square since there is no commute traffic and public transportation is on weekend schedules. This is the second of two street light poles I photographed before 10 AM on my way shopping or home. One is able to appreciate the ornate design of these light poles when they are colorfully painted as this one is. Doubt if any of the new poles nowadays are this ornate, unless a special project. Happy colors.

I yearn for shadows that affirm the solidity and substantiality of the objects that cast them. I hardly notice the building across the street — unfortunately!

Alternate title: "Flick's schoolyard point of view"...regarding Ralphie's friend Flick, who get's dared to stick his tongue to a frozen pole in the movie "A Christmas Story".
Went out this frosty, foggy morning to walk around my neighborhood. What a lovely time of year Winter is. What interesting things the weather can do.
And what a lovely, enjoyable, fulfilling hobby photography is.
Hope you all enjoy this image...perhaps large on black?
I've also tried to show my work flow too. I'm really digging this color/B&W overlay effect.
