Arrow In Black & White: My 2006 Round-Up [70 pix]

Here are some of my favourite city pix I took over the course of 2006. I like black & white - it adds an extra layer to skyline and building shots. Sometimes grittier, sometimes sparkly, sometimes darker - and I like that. Hope you enjoy these, and happy new year to all.


CLEVELAND February 2006

















MINNEAPOLIS March 2006











DETROIT April 2006






















LOS ANGELES May 2006













COLUMBUS June 2006

























BOSTON August 2006













DENVER August 2006



















SALT LAKE CITY November 2006



















PITTSBURGH April, May, July 2006

Beautiful photos... especially in black and white... you have quite the eye for architecture, Mark! I especially love those Cathedral of Learning shots... the centerpiece of my university!

Sometimes black and white brings out the content of pictures better than color.

This, is one of those times.

Here's to 2007.

Glad this one came back (I missed it the first time I guess). Some of theose shots , particularly with the older buildings (Terminal, LeVeque, etc) took me back to another time. Some drama in there SSM. Great stuff, thanks for the new/old look back at your travels.
