Turns out this is where my dad used to work after he got out of the armed forces. It's a 1st National Bank of Omaha building. I like the lines and the way they lead to one point. I remember learning that rule for drawing 3D shapes in art class.
I like road trips because it gives you time to think, and trust me, I have had a lot of that. I spent all day after our little exploration of Omaha just enjoying the open road. There was a beautiful sunset too. This is why I love being on the road. Nearly unlimited time to do what I love (that's photography, in case your a little slow), and time to think and contemplate too.

I feel like I'm laying on the ground looking up with this one. haha. It's really cool though! :D That is one thing about road trips, PLENTY of thinking time, which can be good or bad. It's kinda nice sometimes to just chill out and stop and think, but I usually just end up getting depressed and crying. Just ask Carol....that was fun. Anywho....back to the picture...it rocks. Have fun taking a million more! :D
Wow Steve, i love that picture. sorry i haven't commented in a while.... very busy. Anyway, the flags are my favorite part. And yes i love the vanishing point. I'm surprised that there was little to no lens distortion. Very good job!
And i couldn't agree with you more about the thinking and photographing. Seriously, those are my 2 most favorite things to do in the whole world. That's why i love summer. I've taken countless walks around everywhere taking pictures and thinking. They're pretty much the best!
Anyway, love the picture and i'm majorly jealous about your trip. ha ha :)
wow steve your photography has improved soooooooooo much! this is truly incredible.
How tall are those skyscrapers in Omaha? Now I know they aren't Manhattan size, but that perspective certainly could cause one to think gigantic! Sounds like you're having a fantastic road trip. I love the lines and the framing with the flags on either side. Your photos are amazing!
