Pictures All I Have is a Photograph.... - Page 24

**gblowfish** · 08:12 PM

With all the shelter at home stuff, thought I'd start a fun thread to help get our minds on better times. I am not a professional or high level amateur photographer, but I have taken some cool pictures over the years. If you've taken pictures that you're proud of, how bout posting a couple,and explaining what they are?

I'll Start:

St. Louis July 2003. I was staying downtown in that beer can shaped hotel by the arch. I got a call around midnight that my mom was taken to ICU in Arkansas, and was in bad shape. I got up at dawn as the sun was rising over the Mississippi river. I took this picture looking east. Went to the chapel in the center and said a prayer for my parents. Mom got out of ICU 66 days later.

Alley Springs, MO: From around 2002, near Eminence,MO.

Hotel Bothwell, Sedalia,MO. Shot at sundown in downtown Sedalia.

Desoto Sign, Carthage, MO. On a trip to Arkansas, took the scenic route 2018.

Missouri Hwy 13 Bridge, Lexington, MO: Looking north during the flood of 1993.

I used to take rocks from places I'd been. Had one from the Rockies, Appalachia, Adirondacks, underground rivers, etc. I took Rocks For Jocks at Mizzou and have an appreciation for a good rock. Plus you can throw them if you really need to.

I've been in the Austin area since 1999. That is the most I have seen here, nearly as much as I have seen total in that time! I think it is the first time I have seen snow fall during daylight hours here as well.

Yeah, we've lived here since 2000. I think there were two other times where we received similar snowfall, the last time was about 4 years ago, but they may not have been as significant. You're definitely right about the snowfall during daylight hours.
It was definitely different
