The oldest part of this early 17th coaching inn was built in 1619. It was allegedly described in the New York Times as "the most handsome inn in the world".

City & County Building, Salt Lake City. I have a color version as well, but the black and white just pops more.

Some of the older architecture still around downtown among all the really new buildings

Taken from the 16th floor of another building. It was a real challenge to eliminate indoor reflections as it was taken through a window, behind a blind, with a jacket over my head and camera.

Although this is art in Downtown Calgary, I've recently learned it has a practical purpose, too. There is a very strong venturi effect between the buildings and this sculpture is actually designed to break up the winds and keep it from blowing out windows.

I happened to be driving by looking for something to put this gorgeous sunset into perspective. The new Mormon Temple in NW Calgary is an impressive architectural work anyway so I got the two together.

A monochrome abstract of the Bow Building and Sculpture in downtown Calgary

Here's an abstract view of the Bow Building in Calgary, Alberta

This is the Bow Building in Calgary. Recent, and currently the tallest building in town. That's a very large wire sculpture of a human head in the foreground.

This is a 9 shot HDR merged in LR.

Curious to see how this would be in black and white.

I live in Montana, the closest major city is over 200 miles away in Spokane, Wa. I had been to Spokane and on the way back it was getting late when I came along the shores of lake Pend Orielle. A beautiful, wild place and the deepest lake in the continental 48. It's in Idaho, and there are several marina towns along the road as boating is a regular sport in the lake. Just as I passed a town named "hope, Id." within just a couple of miles I passed thru the town of "beyond hope, Id." No kidding. The sun had gone down and left absolutely gorgeous colors subtly playing chase across the sky. With almost no wind I couldn't resist taking some long exposures while battling the hoard of native mosquitoes who obviously thought I was trespassing. This is just one of the photos I took that evening; I shot until almost dark. Canon 7d, 24-105 L lens, b & h polariser topped with an AFGA polariser to mix the polarisation effects, no flash, Neweer radio controlled sync control to the camera for taking the final shot from my car; when I was hiding from the inch long mosquitoes, at least that is how I remember them.

Some of you know that I've posted a similar photo before, but this time I was on my regular editing PC and was able to edit the RAW image and tone down highlights and have more control across the board.

a different perspective on a building I always drive by.

This is a dance troop that dances suspended over the side of a building lit by theater lighting. They were in constant action so very few shots if any were crisp.
