I worked in the Bank of America Center for 8 years, including the time during tropical storm Allison a few years ago. We weren't able to go to the office for a month while they emptied and dried out the underground shopping area and the bottom of the building. Sadly one person was lost in that storm in our building. As always, thanks for stopping by. Anita

Anita. I always thought Texas was such a dry state until I began to take notice of the fact that you have a lot more rain there than we do here in the Denver area. So sad to hear of the loss of life anywhere expecially when it is senseless. Nevertheless, this is a very nice image. Have you ever played around in Photoshop with straightening out perspedtive? Try it sometime. It is a real hoot.

Both my Wife Patti and I will be posting photos on this site. Hope you enjoy them as much as we have fun taking them. And many thanks to all who view them and comment.
Another nice blend of water and buildings, Anita. I remember that flood there and how devestating it was to all in the city. Sad to know about the death, though. - Patty

It's all about perspective and perception.
Anita , you do educate me with your wonderful Photos - there is always so much to see! After so many Conspiracy Theories aired on TV - I only knew one tiny bit of Houston, and never though of what lies beyond! Thank you for bringing me into a real world!

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

Friends are like shining stars. You may not always see them, but you know they are always there for you.
Beautiful picture.
It is always sad if someone dies during heavy weather. Were you during tropical storm Allison in the bldg., or were you at home. It seems a terrible experience me. Tropical storm do not know we, however, a normal storm, with an extreme wind strength 11, but that is exceptional.

This is just right. This can hold it's own as a design only. Perfect the framing.

Exceptional shot, it almost does not look real to me, we don't have such buildings where I live... The buildings look so nice against that perfect sky!

Excellent capture Anita. You shot it from the perfect angle to show off the majestic way the buildings shoot into the beautifully blue sky. I think you framed it well too.

Age is a high price to pay for maturity.
the contrast of the buildings against that azure blue sky was nice enough, but with the frame...superb!

I saw a peanut stand, heard a rubber band,
I saw a needle that winked its eye.

More does not always equal better.
The buildings look unreal because they are so perfect. I like the way you used the brown to frame the shot.

Most people lye asleep and notice nothing around them. Just wake up and see the natural beauty around you. It will blow you away.
This is a really great capture of the buildings! I especially love the angle and the presentation....awesome work!

You do have the most beautiful buildings where you live Anita. Perfect angle to show off it's beauty and nicely framed. So sad though that someone lost their life here.
