Other Spheres and Curves

.
I was going to use this shot for the December Theme Day until I had the idea for Planet Arch. Good thing I did; it was more fun. This is the Planetarium in Forest Park. The dome with the projector is under the hourglass-shaped building. This ball and ring in the foreground is just a bit of architectural decoration.

WHAT I DID LAST NIGHT: wore a tuxedo; leading to...

TOMORROW: if the pix I just sleepily downloaded late Saturday night turned out, maybe...The Penguin. If they didn't turn out then, well, I got some HDRs downtown Saturday afternoon. The moon is in some of them.

At the request of friend of the blog PJ of Pensacola Daily Photo, I re-edited this to B&W. She's right, as usual. This version is better.

    You have some great places in St. Louis. Great angle on this one for sure.
    Bring on "The Penguin"!!!

    This whole scene looks like from some alien landscape! Cool!

    Speaking of black and white, could we please see this in its miniamalist glory? With you superimposed in your penguin suit somewhere?

    Hilda's alien landscape sums this up nicely. The lo angle on this really makes this such a powerful image.

    It looks like a great speckled egg in the foreground and an egg cup in the back. Somebunny has a fetish.

    PJ was right. Looks much better in B&W. The image is a real winner for the circles and spheres theme.

    Bob, have you seen the Museum/Planetarium in Vancouver? The roof is very similar.
