should work now

should work now

Yes it does...
I like the lamp with the brownish colors. It speaks of warm and cosy times.
I would like to learn more if the picture you see in that photograph.
The building with the broken glass is my second place. Love the repeat of the windows. Makes a nice pattern.
Third I find it interesting that you can still visit the room (really???)where Abe died... We learn about it in our history classes in Belgium, it is kind of nice to see something related to that story.

Yeah, you can go right to the room and see the bed where he died, although the bed is blocked off with a plastic wall. The house is really creepy...I'm sure it has a ghost or two. You can see the theatre too across the street where he was shot. I'll take some shots there and post them, maybe next week.

I will look forward to the theatre ones. I watched Ken Burnes his Secession War series, it is nice to see it linked to how it is now.

Damon, I really like the Escalator shot and this one even more

I wondered what it would be like with the right edge cropped off and straightened slightly so you just have 3 parallel bands of colour .

Interesting idea Gubbs...feel free to manipulate! The exhibit was really cool there...it was made of fluorescent lights, many rooms of varying colours. One room was hellow and green...it was intense. I'll post a couple more later when I get home from the job...thanks for the comment.
