Weekend Reflections – Split Frame
One of my film cameras has the ability to put two small images on the same 35 mm frame. You shoot one image, wind the film a half frame and shoot the other. It drives the guys at Walgreen’s nuts. This frame shows two buildings set against a gloomy sky that are somehow reflecting blue skies.
Weekend Reflections – Post Oak Lodge
Post Oak Lodge is a hilltop retreat up in the Osage Hills near Tulsa. If you ever go, take your camera.
Weekend Reflections
Fisheye Friday – Holy Family Cathedral and School.
I was wandering around town during lunch the other day. I noticed the reflection of the trees in the window of Holy Family Cathedral School.

Weekend Reflections – Honest Folks, This is the Way it Came
This took me a while to figure out. It is how the image came back from the developer.
It is from a 1970’s era 110 film cartridge camera that I brought back to life recently. The image is of the Blue Whale, a long time Route 66 roadside attraction in the Tulsa suburb of Catoosa.
Downtown Sunset by Proxy
Walking to the parking garage the other day I noticed the sunset reflecting off the windows of another office building.

Weekend Reflections – the old Tulsa Y
I love the reflection of the sun off the tile of the old Y. This is a three year old photo. The building is now all boarded up awaiting its fate.
Weekend Reflections – Tulsa’s Cesar Pelli’s Duct Tape
Reflections off Tulsa’s BOK Center featuring a 600 foot long and 103 foot tall glass panel tilted at 5 degrees that wraps partway around the building. It’s always good for reflections.
The building was designed by Cesar Pelli and of course he used all sorts of local influences such Tulsa’s Native American and art deco heritage. He won’t admit but I think he was thinking about tornadoes that frequent tornado alley. Personally I love the building even though it reminds some of my fellow Tulsans of a roll of duct tape coming undone or maybe even a big old hubcap. Speaking of tornadoes, I hope that one never hits that glass panel. We’ll have glass all over Tulsa when that happens.
Weekend Reflections – Old Building
Walking around at lunch with my Ipod. Lots of windows in this old building. Each window tells its own story.
