Capitol Centre Octagon

Terry writes: “This is a shot I took, then had some fun with it in a free photo program named “Zoner.” I feel like I should name the shot High Anxiety.” This is the Capitol Shopping Centre in Cardiff, Wales (not Maryland). “Zoner” is commercial photography software which, among other things, can “use the Droste Effect tool to create pictures that repeat inward into themselves.” Here we have excellent photography which is also very cool!

What a job.” … Click image for large desktop file. Also browse all images in Dave’s Gallery.

#2. The muddy Mississippi as seen from an old time river boat.
#3. Bridge across Mississippi: from a sailing perspective.
#4. St. Louis Arch at night with full moon. Yes, it really looks that.”
