we travelled to Rhodes Greece a couple of years ago now, really now that I reflect on it, we travelled to Rhodes several years ago! Time has flown by, and I am just getting around to scanning some of the photos I took back then. This beautifully carved headstone was in the old part of town, and the lilies were growing up around it, it was quite beautiful.

Atlas at Rockefeller Center NYC

Atlas just out side the doors of the Rockefeller Center, 5 ave between 50 st. and 51 st. New York Center, is in the foreground, St. Patrick’s Cathedral.
I have followed the tutorial for creating black and white images on the Photoblog challenges website, and I am quite happy with the way the image turned out – blacks are solid, but there is still definition in the shoulders of the statue. The sky was quite blown out, so there is no detail in the sky, but I think good definition in the Cathedral.
I also found inspiration with Marina Chetner, and a couple of post she has done recently.

yesterday was a busy day – we started at the World Trade Center. Before visiting the site of the memorial pools we went to the ticket center, where there is lots of information, videos, pictures, and stories of the day and lives that were changed forever. the site takes a while to get into – lots of security, and volunteers to answer questions.
