Big Sky

Big Sky, originally uploaded by bill barfield.

A lot of people think the Williams Tower is the tallest building in Houston. It isn't, and even if it was, it's easily eclipsed by the towers of clouds mother nature churns up on a summer's day. Thanks to Bill Barfield for putting things in perspective for us.

I don't know where this picture was taken, and jfre81 didn't provide any details. Anyone have any idea where this is?

Highway6 does a great job capturing the colors, intentional and otherwise, projected by the Rothko Chapel.

Menil HDR to BW

Menil 1, originally uploaded by Highway6.

Highway6 takes the latest trend in photography (HDR) and applies it to the oldest method in photography (black and white). The result really brings out light and shadow that couldn't be seen before. Very Guy Noir!

Angels to Demons

Cathedral HDR, originally uploaded by Highway6.

Highway6 turns angels to demons, capturing this picture of Sacred Heart bathed in red. Actually, it's just an effect of the cathedral using sodium lamps for illumination, but it certainly gives a normally shiny white building a completely different look.

Another instant classic from Telwink.  You've got to look up to get the best of downtown.

Often the best way to appreciate Houston is from a freeway overpass.

No, not that kind of shooting. Bill Barfield shows us what you can do if you bring your camera along for a ride.

Not that we recommend that sort of thing.
