Terrific photographs of the buildings, Eduardo. Great angles. I wouldn't have known where this was. My memories of Dallas are from watching newreel of that fateful day in 1963, and of course the TV show.

I love the unique perspective and framing of the edifices. You are clearly relying on your own training in architecture to dissect the whole to present the viewer with the individual parts.
A tabblo dedicated jointly to me. Thanks very much!

Modern marvels!

Eduardo, these are great shots of the beautiful buildings we have in Dallas. I know there wasn't much else to do and see while you were here. Well you did get to see me!!! hahaha I have got to start taking pictures showing angles because it really adds a different perspective of the subject. I really do like this and thanks for dedicating it to me and Greg. Hope you are feeling better now!

GREG & DEE:
I wish I could have taken really good photos of Dallas, but the weather was not what I expected from Texas (where were the blue skies? the shining sun?). Some more sets of photos are coming soon - don't forget to check my tabs once in a while. By the way, it wasn't swine flu, and I am feeling much better now (thanks for asking!).


MIKE:
The only images I had ever seen of Dallas were those portraiting "that fateful day in 63" - and of course I visited the 6th floor, went down Elm Street and took a look at the basement where Oswald was shot. Ok, sort of a bizarre tour, I agree. But there wasn't much to do in Dallas (at least before I met Dee for lunch and Greg for a margarita).


ANDRE:
Skycrappers will always be marvels, I think.


LILIANA:
Estes pégasos são o símbolo de Dallas. Estão no topo de um edifício, bem no centro da cidade. Estilizados (como nessa decoração num poste), podem ser vistos em vários lugares.

Edaurdo Affonso, essa sua investida em arquitetura/construção civil pode render algum dimdim/grana/bufunfa. Parabéns pelas interessantes fotografias que compartilhas conosco. Gostei demais deste teu trabalho.

Obviously not just random shots. Nicely contemplated.

KURT: I spent a lot of time walking around Dallas, and I must confess I found it a very strange, empty city. These photos reflect (and confirm, I guess) my impression.

EDITE, PAT, ANGELA, CELIA, TEO, ROBBI, IRA, CHARLES, FÁBIO, NEUSINHA & ROBERT: Thank you a lot for your comments!

PAM: I didn't know anything about the Pegasus, but loved it anyway. Thanks for the information.

Breathtaking! I like how you defy gravity and how you play with reflections.
YonderCreature said at 3:31 a.m. on Jul 15, 2009:
Wow...these images are so crisp, especially the first few, that I thought they were computer-generated drafts of buildings at first! All that I wish to say have already been said above, so I shall gape in silent awe...
