While I was in Philadelphia, I spent most of my time at the University of Pennsylvania. I remember visiting the campus a while ago when my cousin was an undergrad there but haven’t been back since. I LOVED the campus. At first I loved how close all the colleges were together (Drexel, Penn, Wharton) but then while I was walking around I feel in love with the community. Everyone is so nice and friendly. I felt like I was home. The campus itself was beautiful and very clean. I also liked how there were plenty of shops and restaurants in the area to keep me entertained.

Today I’ll be in Philadelphia, PA working on some special architectural images. Before the trip I thought it’d be a good idea to head over to Union Station and get a little practice in. Unfortunately there was no water in the fountain. Fortunately, you can always count on birds to make for a cooler looking image.
Again, I was going through some of my older pics and found this one. Right now the Capitol dome is under construction and all this beauty is covered by tarp. Can’t wait until the work is done and to tour the Capitol again. It’s one of those places that you can’t help but go “Wow”. I think my favorite part of this room is all the windows. They bring in so much light that really gives the room life.
I’ve never taken the time out to read what was on top of Lincoln’s head. I always knew there was some writing there, but I don’t I ever cared too much to read it.
Today was different. I was trying to find unique angles and wound up getting closer and closer to the Mr Lincoln. I loved how the memorial is called a temple. Somewhere for people to really reflect and appreciate on what he has done for our country. No better way to honor a great man than to build a massive memorial dedicated to him.
