Pittsburgh Airport Tram

MJ and I travel out of this airport frequently.  So we end up riding this tram, since it is a requirement to get from the Landside Terminal to the Airside Terminal.  It’s a fairly short ride and isn’t a problem.  For whatever reason, I recorded it last weekend when we were traveling to NYC.  This was recorded with my iPhone.  Enjoy….




Pennsylvanian Ball Room

This building is usually very restrictive when it comes to photographers.  But a few weeks back, the “Open Doors Pittsburgh” event allowed the public to have access to buildings that are normally off limits.  So I took advantage of that situation and captured some great photos all over downtown Pittsburgh.

This building used to be the train and bus station back in the day.  Today is has a number of executive apartments inside it and some of the larger common spaces are used as event locations.  So this former bus/train terminal is now a wedding reception venue.  I love it.

Fulton Street Subway Station

Tonight’s blog post is from the Fulton Street Subway Station in lower Manhattan.  I’m not really which Manhattan neighborhood this is located within, since there are so many of them and I haven’t found a good source on where one neighborhood stops and another starts…. 

This subway station is amazing.  The architecture of this structure is great inside and outside.  Unfortunately, when I was there, photographing the outside wasn’t possible due to construction vehicles parked right in front of it.

Grand Central Terminal

MJ and I had a great trip to New York City.  The weather was nice, the people were polite and the attractions are always outstanding.  Like normal, we packed a ton of activities into a short stay, but it was worth it.  On the first night, I got really lucky while I was out photographing Grand Central Station. 

I was lined up in the middle of the road shooting right down Park Avenue towards the terminal trying to get a photo without too much traffic or people….. And the City of New York decided to help me out.  At that moment, they parked a construction vehicle in the middle of the road to block all traffic just for me (or to start some construction).  Anyway, that meant I had full use of the street all to myself.  I could take my time.  Shoot from different angles.  Not worry about being run over by a taxi.  It was great.  Plus I met a Russian (now a U.S. citizen) who was photographing the same area.  Great first night in the big apple.

So I got this great photo and you get to see it.

Grand Central Station

The iconic must see spot in midtown Manhattan.  The authorities don’t like the use of tripods within the terminal, so I had to be quick.  I also didn’t extend my tripod legs completely.  I setup my tripod on the banister to get it elevated and avoid extending it.  I hope you like the photo.
