Even more Guggenheim, look more closely

Phone snaps from Kansas city, Missouri.

Photographing cemeteries is like photographing homeless people (but that's street photography!), low hanging fruit. While I AM a little late to the cliche (rite of passage?) of shooting in cemeteries, my intention wasn't to make a haunting portrayal of the circle of life or something like that. The light was running out fast, I had to shoot to get out of my slump, plus mausoleums are interesting structures.

This one especially. It reminds me of Stargate. 

The Guggenheim, New York

There's a blizzard brewing outside.

Boston

Could only spend like a few hours sightseeing in Boston out of one whole weekend. More pictures coming, yo.

Brutal CMU

These pictures are from the depth of an extremely brutalist CMU building known as Wean hall. It really celebrates raw studded concrete like this building and also this building.

Brutalist architecture is strangely appealing to me; in a dystopian, 'Ministry of Truth' kind of way. I do have a strange fetish for angular geometry and modernist architecture, though.

Please sound off in the comments if i'm getting my architectural styles wrong; Somehow, im not too confident in my ability to separate certain aspects of Modernism, Post-Modernism, international style etc.

Oh, so pictures..

A storm is brewing

More buildings from philly

Brutal

Its hip to be square(crop), like this guy.

Philladelphia, PA. More building shots to come. yay

New Header

I plan on changing the header of the blog every so often, and explaining the picture behind the last one.
Here is the last one;


This was the background image used


I call this image cloud city, after cloud city from Empire Strikes back. I appreciate modernist architecture and cloud city is one of my all time favs.

The header this week is using the same format of the last header, mainly because I dont have photoshop on my computer. So I made a few headers with the same typography but different background images, in the computer lab before went on a break. I'll get more creative when I get back to school, and get to use the computer labs.


using

I call it monolith, inspired by 2001:A Space Odyssey. I'm a big Kubric buff.

Buildings from the point

Every evening the buildings facing point park are bathed in sunlight, it's a pretty cool sight- esp if your out taking photographs.
I like taking pictures of buildings
