^^ That empty parking lot at Cathedral Basillica is so beautiful lit up at night!
Yeah, just imagine if there were a 10-ish story building right there instead. Wouldn't that be awesome?roger wyoming II wrote:^^ That empty parking lot at Cathedral Basillica is so beautiful lit up at night!

I don't think I've added this. Not terribly original and probably too busy for a desktop but you're welcome to use it.

Here's a few of my own that I've used as backgrounds, lockscreens, and such. (All on Flickr. All available under GNU. Use 'em as you see fit.)

There's other stuff in the album that might be suitable, but I've at least dabbled with all of these as wallpaper. I feel wallpaper is best when it's at least a little abstract. Or maybe not too specific would be a better way to put it. None of the above are absurdly abstract, but the subject isn't too specific.

Here's some of mine. I use this first one on my MacBook and my phone lockscreen. Definitely one of my favorites.

^I love the Midtown to the Arch night shot. And the night river shots are classic. Great concert shot, too.

My longest is a 100-400. Also have a 55-250. I have a 10-18 and an 18-55 for wider shots too.gary kreie wrote: ↑Nov 12, 2020Wow. Great new photos. What is the longest lens folks are using to get those shots that pull the arch and downtown together?
^^You know, I should have realized that was further west. I've not been up to the Chase terrace. Clearly I need to give that a try after Covid.
