Many viewers have commented that The Guardian Building (originally The Union Trust Company Building) reminded them of a church.
This picture shows approximately half of the bank lobby on the main floor. Imagine the original bank building with 60-90 bank teller cages lining the entire length of both sides of this "nave". The ceiling was composed of a 3/4 inch (1.9cm) of horsehair and coated with a layer of plaster cement. Then, a canvas layer was applied, and painted with designs reminiscent of the patterns of Navajo rugs. This was a sound-deadening system.
The "altar piece" ( I suppose) was the three-story mural of the map of the lower peninsula of Michigan. Highlighted were the major Michigan moneymakers of the1890s to 1920s: mining, manufacturing, lumber, fishing, commerce, and agriculture. It was completed in 1929, unfortunately the year of the beginning of "The Great Depression".
This superbly decorated Art-Deco bank building was nicknamed "The Cathedral of Finance." So, if the earlier pictures reminded you of a church (reprised in the first comment below) --you were very observant : -)

Nobody living can ever stop me,
As I go walking that freedom highway;
Nobody living can ever make me turn back
This land was made for you and me.

In der Vergangenheit habe ich es im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes ziemlich bunt getrieben in meinem Stream; das soll sich im neuen Jahr ändern. Den Anfang möchte ich mit einem Motiv machen was Euch "in bunt" bestens bekannt sein dürfte :-))
In the past my stream was a place full of colors; that might change a bit this year. I will make a start with a motive which is likely to be well known "in color" :-))

I don't know if there ever was Gold in Cologne, but if there was, they must have put it into this into this bridge. When I got close, I could see there is is another kind of gold on the bridge. It's full of padlocks hung by lovers. I have never ever seen so many padlocks in one place, as on this bridge. It's from one end to the other.

London's famous houses of parliament and the London Eye as seen from the Thames shore. Today was a magical day in London. Although the sky wasn't orange or pink, it was a subtle blue. Beautiful for pictures.

Image taken in an area called La Petite Venise in Colmar France. Mostly known for it's beautiful flowers along the river during the spring and summer months, I actually prefer the winter solitude without the crowds. :-)

Well, we have lingered at the backwaters of Kerala for quite a while, haven't we? My visit there only lasted one day, but reliving the day through my pictures, I felt like I stayed much longer! It is such a special place in the world. I hope you enjoyed seeing life at a leisurely pace surrounded by water and a lush tropical landscape. Just like these birds, we will be moving on. The next stop will be the beach on the western coast of India by the Arabian Sea.
I changed this image to monochrome which enhanced the light that was streaming through the clouds.
Blick von der Burg in salzburg auf die österreichischen Alpen, leider gibts nur ganz oben auf den bergspitzen Schnee, was für Dezember doch sehr ungewöhnlich ist. Der Rest sieht eher aus, als wäre es Frühling und nicht Winter.
View from the castle in Salzburg of the Austrian Alps, unfortunately, there are only the top of the mountain peaks snow, but what is very unusual for December. The rest looks more like it was spring and not winter.
