Our theme is Architecture.

I've been waiting for this one.



I almost put it in wildlife, but a) there's no wildlife in the picture, and b) the spider built it, so it's architecture.

One foggy Autumn morning, I saw this on my way out the door to work.  That is frost coating the web, with my sweatshirt as backdrop.

I'm keeping an eye out for more traditional "architecture" too.  All I have is my cell phone for a camera though, so who knows how they'll look.

Two more.  Side door of a municipal building, and the local Theatre building.





I also took a picture of a brick wall to be cheeky, but it's too washed out.

I thought I didn't have anything for this one as my architecture phase coincided with my traditional camera stage and my digital camera is currently in storage so no new piccys. Then I remembered this. It's from a trip I took a few years back to Italy. I was mostly experimenting with photographing people, but I did have some fun with the local buildings. It was a beautiful little town. I wish I could still find all the pics from that trip. This is the only building pic from those that I still have. I hope you like it.

Welcome to the new Avatar Design Challenge, round two! Smiley
I had some others, but they were sort of too intricate and didn't translate well to avatar size (doesn't help I can't figure out how to resize without it getting fuzzy. lol). But here's one that turned out really well! These are the steps at Belfast Castle.

There are some great submissions!

I wonder if anyone would be willing to take this over for me for a little while? I am short on brain in general, and I appear to be in the beginning of a lyme flare-up. Sad Just shoot me a PM if you're interested, it doesn't require all that much.
