I’m going back to the old days for my shadows this week. Remember 2014? No covid right? Ah, them were the days. I noticed that I posted the same shot for Shadow Shot Sunday twice in the last three weeks. If anybody noticed they were nice enough not to say anything. You know how us old guys are. We are forgetful, and lazy. So I’m going back ten years.
And I was a lot skinnier back then as well! Not so much bingeing Netflix and snacks back then.
Tulsa had this old pedestrian bridge across the Arkansas River. I loved it. A former railroad bridge that was deemed unsafe by the city and torn down and replaced by a fancy new bridge. I love the new bridge as well. At least I got photos of the old bridge. The new bridge is pretty sleek but its shadows are weak. You didn’t know I was a poet did you?
I love fire escape stair shadows. I don’t go to downtown much any longer so I dug this up out of archives.
If you love shadows go check out Shadow Shot Sunday.
I like the staircase, think that’s my favourite, we don’t have them like that here.
With my memory I wouldn’t notice repeats!!! We’ve been rewatching series 1 of shows, prior to season 2, as we’re feeling pretty dim.
2014, in a lot of ways, was a pretty good year. You dug out some fantastic shadows, especially the old bridge. Too bad it had to be torn down. Binghamton’s historic bridge (pedestrian for years) dates from 1886. I love those old bridges but understand the safety concerns over them needing to be torn down. The first picture was also a fantastic capture. Alana ramblinwitham
Lindas fotos. Me gusto la primera y siempre es bueno recordar buenos tiempos.- Te mando un beso.
Nice set of images. Man, you were long and lean in 2014. When I was a kid, that railroad bridge was functional, but I have forgotten which railroad it belonged to. Like you I am intrigued by fire escapes. They are almost like metal sculptures attached to the side of buildings. Nice post Yogi.
I like them all, but that first is great! Oh, 2014… I don’t think I was thinner, but I was younger! Started a new job, my favorite ever, until it wasn’t.
Stairs is amazing photo.
Love the shot of the old bridge – and your “weak” bridge poem made me smile! The fire escape shadows are cool too. Great to see these from the archives!
I don’t remember these photos Yogi, they’re great!
