Exact dezelfde plek als mijn laatste upload. Zoek de verschillen... Helaas is deze locatie hedendaags niet meer zo mooi als hij was (vind ik tenminste). Het houtwerk en vooral die verschrikkelijke stoplichten maken het allemaal een stuk onrustiger. Het zal nodig zijn geweest, maar het (fotografisch gezien) inmiddels iconische bruggetje zal zoals de meesten het kennen voortaan alleen nog in de archieven te vinden zijn.
Panasonic camera bridge at macro wide angle. Ant in a wheat field full of flowers, so close to the camera that it's walking over the front of the lens.
Cámara bridge Panasonic en gran angular macro. Hormiga en un campo de trigo lleno de flores, tan cerca de la cámara que termina andando sobre el frontal de objetivo.

Behind the metal frame and glass panels, stairs and an escalator lead up to an enclosed walkway (overpass) over Macleod Trail, one of Calgary's busiest roads, and on to Chinook Centre shopping mall.
Note how the curved design of the red benches contrasts with the straight lines and angles of the structure behind them.
Regarding architecture, it is often said that "form follows function." While true in many cases, this ignores the fact that architects can also use frivolous architectural forms to show off, to indulge their egotism and vanity, and to attract attention to themselves for the purpose of obtaining future commissions. Viewers should ask themselves, "What is the purpose, the function, of the diagonal linear forms and triangular shapes on the outside of the structure [in the photo above]?" Mere decoration? Artistry that enhances the urban environment?

Voigtlander 25mm f4 Snapshot Skopar
The little 25 back in action, becoming a firm favourite, for its size and usability not to mention the output. Enjoyed the girls lipstick and mouth mimicking somewhat her idol Madonna =D
Architectural details shown: at right is a vertical metal screen; top middle is the base of a diagonal pillar; upper left is a wall; and the floor. (The table is furniture, not architecture, but its wood and white materials match the interior of the library.)

We had a fun day at the ball park. Brent played two games of softball and I took pictures. For the complete, nearly never-ending set of pictures from the day, click here. I didn't want to flood flickr with all the pictures. The best ones are here, in the flickr stream.
The sharp-edged cloud is part of a Chinook Arch, a common cloud formation in southern Alberta (it forms close to, parallel to, and northeast of, the Rocky Mountains).

An altered landscape: in the middle of the photo, a logging road curves through a cut-over area: note the open areas with logs and tree trunks lying on the ground (zoom in to see these), and the near-uniform size of the young green trees near the road (probably planted in an effort to 'renew' the forest). Undisturbed forest forms the nearer hillsides in the background, with the exception of the cleared strip along the power line at upper left. Some of the bare areas on the background hillsides are bedrock cliffs.
Location: near the towns of Greenwood and Rock Creek, near Highway 3 and the USA border in southern British Columbia, western Canada.
