Welcome/Willkommen!
Hello and welcome. Hope you enjoy the images I have posted. Please do not reproduce them without my permission. Most are available as note/greeting cards or as prints/enlargements. Thank you for visiting my site and your comments.
Many have asked about the Header image above, which I named 'Eerie Genny'. It was originally shot with film [taken on the shore of the Genesee River near the Univ. of Rochester]. During the darkroom development, I flashed a light above the tray. The process, known as 'solarization', produces eerie, ghostlike effects; some have mistaken this image as an infra-red photo. Some 35+ years later, I scanned and digitized the print, and did a little modern day editing, and, voila.

Toronto's Royal Ontario Museum Exteriors [Sky Watch Friday]
Here are several examples of the Libeskind architectural style on the exterior of the Royal Ontario Museum. Oh, I did make sure to include some sky --

Those are stunning shots...and I bet the museum's a treat, too!
And a lovely sky it is, too! But even if you hadn't included it, the reflections in the museums windows would have definitely taken care of that little "SkyWatch" mandate quite nicely! :-) Thought not usually a fan of modern architecture, I must say this is a very cool building! Photogenic, too!
Beautiful images, love all the angles and reflections!
Your header shot is truly unique, and thank you for sharing its story, very interesting!
Happy Sky Watch,
Merisi
fascinating angles and architecture: the way the sky becomes part of the building, and the building seemingly reaches for the sky.
We seem to have posted similar observations as clouds
merge into and are reflected in the windows of tall buildings....somehow it does work better when the
sky and clouds and light is just right for the particular building that has the windows that assist in the merging effect. Thanks for your thoughtful comment.
Beautiful shots of this amazing building!
Amazing architecture, and cool how the glass parts pick up the sky and cloud colors!
These are just awesome shots, and very fun angle to see..
Interesting how this building seems to choose what and how it will give back the light. No simple glass box here.
Those are really interesting geometric designs on the building. Wonderful contrasts against the sky. Thanks for stopping by my sunrise! Enjoy the weekend.
What great photos :) Interesting architecture and a beautiful sky!
