St. Louis
I have a lot of good memories in this town. There is a part of me that still gets giddy like a little kid when I drive down I-64 through the City.
If you’ve taken 64 into St. Louis, you may have noticed a large green dome to the West-Northwest.
It is the Cathedral of Saint Louis. It is very big and very beautiful with an absurd number of mosaics. I went there a few weekends back.
After mass a number of people stuck around to take pictures with mostly hand held point-and-shoot cameras. At most a small flash will basically do nothing to improve your photos in a large, relatively dim space. You really need a tripod.
The Cathedral of Saint Louis, as seen from I-64
I actually had one guy come up to me and ask if I was a photographer working at the church, kinda like those photographers at Disneyland I guess. I told him “no” but I took a picture of him with his camera. I’m a nice guy like that.
Like the cathedral shot and appreciate your feedback on my lizard pic the other day. I put some of that feedback to work on the Cooper’s Hawks that were hanging out on a putting green in Tucson. Hope you like this one better!

Glad you like the cathedral shot!
I like your photo of the hawks, one of them seems to be looking at you!
Great shot. I like the lens flare
Thanks JP, I thought maybe it was the holy spirit, but I guess it is a lens flare.
Thanks for the visit John!
