Close your eyes and imagine a place where important men and women go to play. It’s the site where fierce battles are waged in the name of the people of Indiana. Since 1888 it has been a place to be heard, a place to enact, and even a producer of pork. It is a beautiful building, standing tall, looking stately, and filling the hearts of the Hoosiers with pride.
Good job. Are these shot through an infrared filter?
None.
I see. Well a job of doing whatever you did with these.
🙂 That’s cool of you to say.
I did different things with each picture. In several, I took out all color but the blue. In another, I took out all the color but red. The last few were taken at night. The first one, I took out all color but green and the last one, all color but yellow(so you could see the gold eagle).
Details and witnesses my favourites.
Thanks Omnia.
Very stately indeed! Nice.
Thank you.
lovely photos of Indy. Capital of my home state.
Well there will be more of Indy. I still have Indy bling, the circle, general photos and looking up photos. 🙂
Lovely Seth! Nice connection to past and present. May we always savor our ties to our past. Wonderful.
Thanks Jan.
Thank you for highlighting my home state! Great pics!
Nice city. Thanks Adam.
i particularly like the blue one. That is my birthplace – not the capitol building, obviously, but Indianapolis. Nice to see a post on it! 🙂
Thanks. 🙂 Nice birthplace.
I didn’t have much to do with it, but thanks! 🙂
Fun to see your collection and viewpoint after shooting there a few weeks ago. They’re lovely! I look forward to seeing more.
🙂 Thanks
During the 90s I lived at the Speedway. I love Indy.

Very cool
Thx. 🙂

That’s super kind of you. Thanks.
enjoyed this composition of photos!
Thanks so much. Glad you like them. 🙂 L
Cool looking building, great shots.
Thanks. It’s a nice statehouse.
Your photos of this turned out much better than min. I was able to get a closeup of the Morton statue but my photos of the courthouse didn’t turn out so well.
I am sure they are great. Thanks for the compliment.
Beautiful post! Can’t wait to see your photos when Spring actually arrives.
Thanks Jane.
Beautiful architecture!
It is isn’t it? 🙂 Thanks Maria.
The building and the photography has done justice to the built environment. It makes it proud to be :))
Thanks kalabalu.
you are welcome
A very nice tour of Indy.
Thanks David. Stay tuned for a bit more of Indy.
Liking the shine composition a lot!
Thanks PJ.
I really appreciate the way you metaphorically focus on just one or two subjects and then find such diverse and interesting ways to respond to them: by day or night, from different vantage points, highlighting an architectural detail, foregrounding or backgrounding aspects. Really creative and sensitive responses to create a sense of space. Thank you.
That’s kind of you to say. Thanks for the compliment.
Oh I do love all these architectural pictures! I still can’t figure out how you get the one “other” color with the black and white!.
Thanks Keli. It’s all in the program you use.
Looks like a house of power …. beautiful building. *smile
My pick has to be the lamp post and one with the flags …
Thanks. :O)
Okay the third picture is amazing! I don’t know what the photographic term is for it, but the effect of colors, the way the reds an the lights pop and the contrast…it just looks amazing. If you stare at the picture it almost looks 3d it has so much depth. Skills Mr. You have serious skills!
I don’t know what you call it either. 🙂 Thanks for your nice words.
Grand!
Thanks Mary.
VERY cool! I love what you left in there for color…especially the cones!!!!
Thanks so much…. L)
thank you for bringing the beauty of Indiana to us! what lens / camera are you shooting with for the first couple of shots? thank you for your visits to my daily posts, and i love your mission!
Thanks yi-ching lin.
These are some awesome, interesting pics. I’m suprised that there isn’t more filming being done in Indiapolis. Most of Los Angeles has zero history in its architecture in comparison to great east coast cities.
Thanks. 🙂 Yeah, you’d think that would be the case.
