The safety record sign present at the old, abandoned mine, with the lead names of the safest workers still vaguely discernible after all these years… (I would love for you to come back to visit, so please SUBSCRIBE using one of the buttons I have up there at the top on the left. And be sure to find me on […]

Heh. Now, don’t panic. There aren’t any pictures of mob snitches floating under water here. But, I couldn’t resist the 1930s film noir reference on this picture that I kind of just took on a whim and ended up really liking! This is one of those exhibits at the St. Louis Zoo where you walk under the […]
A couple of alternate shots I took of the mine complex, with different finishes. You’re really kind of away from everything else, as the mine was on the outskirts of the small town, and there were next to no visitors the day we were there. It was kind of like the set of Mad Max […]
How cool is this detail of the old power grid at the Missouri Mines? It lent itself to making a great abstract! (I would love for you to come back to visit, so please SUBSCRIBE using one of the buttons I have up there at the top on the left. And be sure to find […]
Hey, there! Happy Monday! Hope you had a great weekend! This weekend, The Hubs and I, along with Silent Jay, took a trip out to visit the Missouri Mines historic site. I’d never been there before, so I was eager to see what was there. And hopefully, get some good pictures! See if you can spot Silent Jay […]
Another detail/abstract picture for Saturday, but this one sunny and bright! This is a detail from one of the garden gates at the St. Louis Botanical Gardens. The plantlike tendrils are made from glass and reach for the sky, mimicking the beautiful botanicals found in the surrounding gardens and reflecting the sunlight above. (I would […]
I got to playing with this one and thought it lent itself well to an abstract, which is now my current obsession. LOL This is a detail of the Climatron here in the St. Louis Botanical Gardens. I think I’m going to go back down there and get some more pix to play with. Since […]
Just a nice easy picture today. Well, easy, except for pull over and grabbing a quick shot as traffic went by. LOL That’s the fun thing about the Arch in St. Louis – you can almost always find new places you can see it from. As long as you are willing to jump out of […]
I make no secret of my love of Gargoyles. I wrote a post about there here. I even love the Gargoyles cartoon. So, when I spotted these guys, I had to stop the car and jump out to get a couple shots. Now, these fellows sit high atop the St. George Catholic Church in South St. Louis. […]
Heh. Here’s something to wake you up on a Monday. I thought I would share this today, since I have to be up at 4:00am to get The Girl Child up to her high school parking lot by 5:00am. She’s catching a ride with her Theater director and four of her fellow thespians to Lincoln, Nebraska […]
