    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    I really like this image too. Love the symmetry, the converging lines, and textures. thumb.gif

    A historic place indeed!

    Nice shot and processing thumb.gif

    I'm glad they finally moved the bench and trash can from near your shooting location. It was an unnecessary eyesore for photographers eek7.gif

    Thanks, Randy. There are still some eyesore on the entrance to this corridor that's why I positioned myself about 2 feet after the entrance. Still, a very nice and historical place to visit specially if you are in Texas. Thanks for viewing, Randy. :D

    I like how you took this in the center looking forwards.

    Lived in TX and been to TX a lot, but have never visited the Alamo. Need to do that next time I'm down south.

    Thanks, Mary. You'll be in for a good treat once you visit the Alamo, a lot of things to feast your eyes upon photographically. thumb.gif
