More than 100 years of railroad history is preserved in a converted railroad depot in downtown Franklin.
Signs instructing passengers where to line up and workers what to check at each stop are nailed to the walls. Coal shovels speak to the time when the "iron horses" were powered by steam.
Signal lanterns are encased in glass, showing the ways that the trains communicated before radio. A large-scale model of a Michigan Central Line car is the centerpiece of the room.
But history lovers and railroad aficionados don't know how much longer the depot will remain operational. The building's longtime tenant, the Franklin Chamber of Commerce, moved into a new office this year.
The space adjoined to the museum is being rented to a local merchant. But the Franklin Education Foundation, which owns the depot, might be forced to close or move it to a new location.
"The thing I am most interested in is not that it is occupied. I was most interested in making sure it remains part of the community," said Max Fitzpatrick, a historian and member of the education foundation. "But we still don't know what we'll do with the building."
The station was a stop on the New York Central Line, one of the largest operating American railroads in the eastern part of the country. Trains running from Fairland stopped in Franklin at the station, letting off fuel, lumber and other goods before continuing to Martinsville.
"The railroad is important to Franklin because it carried grain and coal and fuel in those early days. That's what supplied the town," Fitzpatrick said.
But the line closed the depot in the 1960s. When the railroad stopped using it, local preservationists discussed the best way to use the old building.
The Franklin Education Foundation purchased the abandoned structure for $1 from the railroad.
"It had been on fire. It had been given to the Boy Scouts. It had also been used for things where people didn't want to spend the money to fix it up," Fitzpatrick said.
Originally, the depot building was located north of the downtown area, on Cincinnati Street. The foundation moved it on a flatbed truck to a spot off Jefferson Street, near the existing railroad tracks.
Moving the structure posed its own challenges, Fitzpatrick said. At one corner, a large tree prevented the flatbed from turning safely. When word spread that they were planning to cut the tree down, a local resident protested, climbing in the tree to prevent it from being chopped down.
"I had to give her $1,000 to get her out of that tree," Fitzpatrick said. "I still have a branch off of that tree."
Education foundation volunteers fixed up the building and looked for tenants to rent the space. It housed the United Way and Johnson County Red Cross, but both organizations eventually moved out. Then in the late 1970s, the Franklin Chamber of Commerce was looking for a new home.
"I told them, if they needed a permanent home, this would make an eye-catching office for a lot of people," Fitzpatrick said.
At the same time, the educational foundation created a museum devoted to the county's railroad history in half of the depot, said Bill Green, president of the education foundation.
The museum includes artifacts from local people. Many items came from residents who worked in the railroad shops in Beech Grove, a major hub for Indiana railroads. Others were left from the interurban that ran to Indianapolis through the city.
For more than 30 years, the Franklin Chamber of Commerce occupied the depot. The museum was used for school field trips and opened to the public every year at the annual Franklin Fall Festival. But this year, the chamber moved into a new office in downtown Franklin. That left the education foundation with no tenant.
Fitzpatrick started making contingency plans for the building. He approached charitable organizations throughout the community, but the space didn't fit any of their needs. He and other volunteers also talked to railroad clubs about taking over the structure.
The education foundation board was approached by the Indiana State Fair about moving it to Indianapolis, to be put on display on the fairgrounds as a educational exhibit.
"It'll always say 'Franklin' on the front but would be a Johnson County artifact on the fairgrounds. That way, the museum would be kept up," Fitzpatrick said.
Still, the board has not made any final decisions about the building, Green said. Currently, a new local business, Simplify: A Country Store, is renting the space by the month.
A final decision will be made next summer, Fitzpatrick said.

Post-Bachelor's Ph.D.
As is true for all doctoral programs currently offered by College of Engineering, the MS requirements for the Mechanical or Manufacturing degree comprise the structured coursework portion of the PhD program. The remaining required PhD credit hours remain unstructured and can be chosen, with advisor approval, to meet an individual student's academic interests and research needs.
Doctoral students must satisfy a residency requirement of at least two consecutive academic-year semesters of full-time graduate study at Boston University. Students must pass comprehensive examinations covering basic knowledge in mechanical engineering and demonstrate sufficient competency in mathematics.
Post-bachelor's PhD students are required to complete a minimum of 64 credits, of which 32 credits must be the structured courses required for the MS degree.
Doctoral students must maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.00 to remain in good academic standing and to graduate. All graduate courses are counted in the GPA. Only grades of "B-" or better fulfill PhD curricular requirements.
A minimum of 16 credit hours of research/dissertation is required.
Post-bachelors doctoral students will be awarded MS degrees upon completion of the 32 credit hours of structured coursework and the PhD Prospectus Exam.

Welcome to Guys Read, a web-based literacy program for boys founded by author and First National Ambassador of Young People's Literature Jon Scieszka. Our mission is to help boys become self-motivated, lifelong readers.
Research shows that boys are having trouble reading, and that boys are getting worse at reading. No one is quite sure why. Some of the reasons are biological. Some of the reasons are sociological. The good news is that research also shows that boys will read — if they are given reading that interests them.
So the biggest part of this site is the collection of titles below. These are books that guys have told us they like.
Our idea is to help guys become readers by helping them find texts they want to read.
Get in there and start looking around. There is a little something for everyone.
And please help guys out by recommending more of your guy-favorites.
Guys Read is also multi-volume book set, each volume featuring ten of the best writers in different genres, hoping to serve as an introduction to writers and illustrators guys will want to know better. There are five so far, from HarperCollins: Funny Business, Thriller, The Sports Pages, Other Worlds, and True Stories.
Guys Read is also all of the clubs that keep the GR mission alive in libraries, classrooms, and living rooms from coast-to-coast and around the globe! (Here's a map of all the field offices.)
has written many series, like The Youngest Templar (Keeper of the Grail, Trail of Fate, and Orphan of Destiny) and Killer Species (Menace from the Deep, Feeding Frenzy, Out for Blood, and Ultimate Attack), as well as stand-alones like The Enemy Above, out in June, and this fantastic one. (Our full review here.)
GR: You don't shy away from horrors of all kinds. How did you approach writing such traumatic things for a young audience?
MPS: First, I think young people are much more resilient and tougher than we think. When you're writing for young readers you owe to them to be as honest as you can. The second thing is that I feel it's important when writing about true events that you remain as true to what really happened as you can. I wanted young readers to understand the real sacrifice made by these men. That Into the Killing Seas was not a movie or a video game. It happened in real life. And I tried to write it the way it happened.
GR: We love how you handle the brothers' relationship, and how different people handle trauma. Could you talk more about the idea that Teddy doesn't need to be shamed for his shut down state when some might look at him and say he has to "man up"?
MPS: It's set during World War II and it's likely that Teddy would not have been treated in the more enlightened way we treat children like him today. He's somewhere on the autism scale and that was not a condition well understood then. But Teddy has a support system in a brother, Patrick, and a talks tough, but has a heart of gold marine named Benny. Even when Teddy annoys Patrick, he doesn't abandon him. One of my favorite scenes is where Benny explains to Patrick that Teddy isn't bad, just different. He's shut down because he's traumatized, but some day he'll come back to himself and be there for Patrick, but for now it's up to them to watch over him.
GR: What inspired you to focus on guys who are so young and taking action in the course of hugely difficult events?
MPS: My father was a World War II veteran. I have an enormous amount of respect for the Greatest Generation. The things they survived and endured. My father never talked much about his time in the Army. He was a quiet, sensitive man and his older brother was killed in action in Europe. He enlisted as soon as he turned eighteen. He never had more than an 8th grade education. I once asked him why he enlisted instead of waiting to be drafted and he said, "there was a job that needed to be done." I find that remarkable.
As I started to research the book and look at photos, I realized how young they were. Television and movies have tricked us into thinking the fighting was done by older, more mature men. It wasn't. Teenagers did the bulk of it. They saved the world. Then they came home, didn't ask for any special treatment, and just picked up where they left off. My dad returned to the very same job he had before the war.
These boys didn't see themselves as heroes. When you read their stories or talk to them, most them admit to being scared out of their wits most of the time. I'm sure my father saw things that terrified him. I remember when I visited France several years ago. My father was raised in the hills and hollers of eastern Kentucky. In sending him to France you might have well sent him to the moon. But he went. And he and millions of other men came home and asked for nothing. I think it's one of the most fascinating periods in our history.
GR: Were you interested in history when you were younger, or did that interest grow more as you grew up?
MPS: One of the first vacations I remember taking was to Gettysburg. I've always loved history and when I went to college I majored in it. It's something you can never stop learning about.
GR: We have to talk a little about sharks. What is the coolest or craziest thing you learned about sharks while researching this?
MPS: I was lucky to be connected with Dr. Sonny Berger of the University of Miami Bimini Sharklab, one of the foremost shark experts in the world. He was kind, gracious, and patient with my questions.
One thing I found interesting was the myth that sharks smell blood from great distances. Most species don't have a great sense of smell. There are catfish and salmon that have a better sense of smell than most sharks. Sharks are attracted to sound. To them sound means the possibility of food and sound will travel over great distances underwater.
When the Indy sank, you had a perfect storm of noise as the ship exploded and tore itself apart as it sank. The sound attracted sharks from all over the area. Then they arrived to find 900 men floating in the water, most of them wounded, screaming and crying out. The area where the ship was sunk is some of the most heavily shark infested waters in the world. It was horrible.
An interesting side note is that I learned that the famous chef Julia Child worked for the Office of Strategic Services (the forerunner of today's CIA). One of her first assignments was to create a shark repellant. She mixed up the ingredients in a bathtub with a canoe paddle. It proved to be ineffective.
GR: One of the great things about this novel is how it connects to so much history that interested readers can go find out more about. One thing we find especially relevant to the GR audience is your acknowledgement of Hunter Scott, the twelve-year-old in the late 1990's whose interest and research led to history of the USS Indianapolis being reclaimed. When were you first introduced to this extraordinary story?
MPS: I first heard about Hunter and his quest to clear Captain McVay in the late 90's when he was in the news. I understand he went on to join the Navy and that he attends the USS Indianapolis survivor's reunion, which they hold in Indianapolis every two years. Even though Captain McVay doesn't appear in Into the Killing Seas, Hunter's story will hopefully show young people that regardless of the odds, they can facilitate important and significant change. In Hunter's case he helped restore the reputation of a fine officer and a good man.
GR: What was similar about researching this and your Killer Speciesseries featuring genetically modified creatures? What was different?
MPS: In the Killer Species series I needed to learn about animal behavior and characteristics, much the same, as I needed to learn about shark behavior. What was different is how much I learned about the genetic engineering and cross breeding that is already taking place. We're creating 300-pound salmon. They're supposedly to be only for fish farms. Which is what they said about the Asian Carp. We're messing around with stuff we have no business messing around with.
GR: Did you realize you were making a kind of unofficial Jaws prequel for young audiences? Did you ever imagine a young Quint in the periphery of your scenes?
MPS: I know the Quint scene from the movie. Not surprisingly there are a couple of historical inaccuracies in his speech. But I never really thought about Jaws. I learned from Dr. Berger that there is no such thing as a man-eating shark. A shark eats what it thinks is food. While there are species that are more aggressive than others, you are in their environment. They are going to treat you as food. Ironically, Peter Benchley spent the rest of his life renouncing the portrayal of the shark in Jaws. The book and movie made people think of Great Whites as evil killing machines. They're not. They're sharks being sharks.
GR: What's your next project?
MPS: Coming in June 2016 is another novel set in World War II and based on a true story. During the German occupation of Ukraine there were groups of Jewish families who lived in caves and escaped detection. Some women and children did not see the sun for over 500 days. In The Enemy Above, a young boy named Anton must rescue his grandmother from a Gestapo Major who has captured her and is trying to learn the location of their hiding place. It's a very psychologically suspenseful novel as Anton and the Major try to outwit each other.
GR: Man, we can't wait to dig into that one. Lastly, what are some books you love, to pass on to enthusiastic young readers?
MPS: I highly recommend The Edge by Roland Smith. Nobody writes middle grade action and adventure like him. I also love the Monster in my Closet series by Obert Skye. He's hilarious. I actually snorted out loud a couple of times reading them. Another book I've read recently isNight on Fire by Ronald Kidd. It's a fantastic book about the civil rights movement in the 1960s.
A great account for anyone interesting in knowing more about how the US military works, a great voice for others with similiar experience yearning for acknowledgement, and a primer for anyone thinking of enlisting, this memoir puts you in the boots of a young guy who within a couple years went from being a high-school wrestler to and on-the-ground "GI Joe Schmo" (in his words) in Iraq. Smithson writes with great simplicity that serves his honesty. He's not pro or anti war. He has opinions, but acknowledges others, always striving to reamin impartial and to just share this story, a side of things not frequently presented this way. Every soldier has a story. This is one. And a great one, at that.
We're always taking suggestions.

In the 1940s, Georges Canguilhem has established the concept of biological normativity on the level of the organism in his key work on "The Normal and the Pathological". We would like to present a contemporary analysis of Canguilhem's work, set it in context with more recent results from the field of complexity and immunology, and evaluate the problematic whether normativity is a genuine capacity of the organism. Based on Canguilhem's conditions of the definition of biological normativity, we show that the immune system as one of the complex systems of the living equally shares the capacity to be normative. We will then conclude that normativity can also be conceptually independently displayed on the level of complex systems of the living.

I think a Venetian, was in England in this reign, and painted ruins with historic figures, in the manner of Paolo Panini. At Joli's house I saw one of those pictures, in which were assembled as many blunders and improprieties as could be well contained in that compass. The subject was Alexander adorning the tomb of Achilles : on a grave- stone was inscribed, Hic jacet M. Achille, P.P. (i.e. pater patriæ.) The Christian Latin, the Roman M. for Marcus, the Pater Patriæ, and the Italian termination to Achilles, all this confusion of ignorance made the picture a real curiosity.
(— 1765.)
In a country so profusely beautified with the amenities of nature, it is extraordinary that we have produced so few good painters of landscape. As our poets warm their imaginations with sunny hills, or sigh after grottoes and cooling breezes, our painters draw rocks and precipices and castellated mountains, because Virgil gasped for breath at Naples, and Salvator wandered amidst Alps and Apennines. Our ever-verdant lawns, rich vales, fields of haycocks, and hop-grounds, are neglected as homely and familiar objects. The latter, which I never saw painted, are very picturesque, particularly in the season of gathering, when some tendrils are ambitiously climbing, and others dangling in natural festoons ; while poles, despoiled of their garlands, are erected into easy pyramids that contrast with the taper and upright columns.

replacing 3/4 inch sub floor
What would it cost to replace 900 square feet 3/4 inch sub floor.
Materials only? Or labor as well? And what do you want to replace it with? Plywood, OSB, 1X boards?
Why are you changing it? Call your local lumber yard and get the cost of the subflooring you want and add the cost of fasteners and adhesive---add in a compressor and gun if you don't have one already---
Hammer,pry bar --saw and blades---and you have the cost---

Mephisto Men's Shark Chestnut Leather - Although sports sandals are highly useful for recreational activities, they are often too casual for use in other settings. The Mephisto Men's Shark is made to hold up to heavy use in sports and recreation, but it is also formal enough for use in an entirely different type of atmosphere. The sandals can be easily put on and kicked off with a convenient one touch quick release system. The construction of the Shark Sandal keeps feet safe and comfortable. The sole is made from rubber and can be replaced at a later date if necessary. Over the rubber soul and latex mousse midsole is a suede covered cork with anatomical contouring. This contouring provides a foot cradling effect that effectively protects the pressure points of the foot. The adjustment strap and backstrap are both lined and cushioned for extra comfort. With a dual brown and black upper leather portion, the sandal can be matched with just about any wardrobe.

"I've purchased two MBT shoes recently to replace the MBT's I bought several years ago. When they went out of business for awhile, I tried substitute shoes. But there is no substitute for MBTs. I have an artificial knee and a fused foot. With MBTs my joints are cushioned like shock absorbers. My posture is better. My energy level is higher. I sleep better and get more done. PLUS, I do not use my orthotics with MBTs. These shoes may have been designed scientifically. But their effect is almost miraculous to me. I feel stronger, mentally sharper and can walk longer with no fatigue. I would highly recommend them to anyone with feet or knee problems. And if you don't like them, Footwear etc. will take them back no problem and no questions asked. And I know why-- because MBTs are that good."

The graphics card ranging between 200 and 250 euros, there are no shortage of choice, recommendations are Radeon HD 6950 and GeForce GTX 560 Ti. With the arrival of the overclocked versions of the GTX 560 and the 6950 version with only 1 GB, more competition is raging. There are plenty of choice between a GTX 560 Ti base, an overclocked GTX, Radeon HD 6950 2GB and a Radeon HD 6950 1GB. The mid-range graphics cards has greatly facilitated in recent months. After experiencing difficult times in 2010 with its Fermi was well caught by Nvidia GeForce 5xx out that although only the GeForce 4xx revised nevertheless finally live up to expectations. While consumption remains high but is now supported by cooling systems able to contain this high wattage dissipation supported. After a GeForce GTX 580 that crushes everything in its path and a GTX 570 with an excellent level of performance for a lower price, Nvidia felt pushed into the wings emerging from its archives Ti suffix for Titanium, which had more with the brand name for a GeForce 4200 GeForce Ti. Thus, the GTX 560 Ti came to hurt AMD in a very bearer of the card whose price ranges between 200 and 250 euros.
Because AMD's Radeon series 5000 was painful and somewhat confused. The Radeon 6850 and 6870 were surprised by a trade name which suggested higher performance than the 5800 but it was not the case. This role was dedicated to the Radeon 6950 and 6970 which certainly got a higher level than the 5800 but not dramatically. In addition, being equipped with 2 GB of memory, the sale price is impacted and yet few games that can take advantage of such a quantity of GDDR5. This has pushed AMD released a Radeon HD 6950 with a gigabyte of memory, the aim being to lower the price facing a fierce GeForce GTX 560 Ti ... At the exit of the GeForce GTX 560 Ti, AMD had been able to provide a overclocked version of 6870. The Radeon HD 6950 with 1024 memory is indeed arrive until two days after the launch date of the card firm to the chameleon. Having since received a heavily overclocked GeForce Ti 560 from Zotac, we thought it would be interesting to contrast them to a duel. Between 6950 and 1GB Zotac GeForce GTX 560 AMP Edition Ti, what to choose? Response in our graphics test comparing 19 cards, all compatible with DirectX 11.
The card Radeon HD 6950 1GB we received is a reference model that AMD is in all respects identical to the version shipping 2 GB. They are also difficult to differentiate at first, and only a glance back the map reveals the absence of memory chips on this side of the PCB. Note that the Radeon 6950 on the cheap is not widespread yet, Sapphire is the only one to offer a commercially competitive price of 210 euros. The GeForce GTX 560 AMP Edition Ti Zotac for its part is very different from the reference GeForce. As is the case for the GTX 460, GTX 560 is the card that will undergo the greatest changes in terms of overclocking and cooling systems. The Zotac combines for its part with its two aspects of a share of frequencies up and secondly a specific sink. Side of the GPU, its frequency from 822 MHz for the standard model at 950 MHz, which is a nice 15% overclock. The memory of its side works at 1100 MHz to 1002 MHz against the reference map. Overclocking about 10% then, which is somewhat more modest. The 384 shader cores for their part, operate at a frequency of 1900 MHz 1644 MHz cons of origin for the GPU, there is also an increase of around 15%. The amount of memory remains unchanged with 1024 MB of GDDR5 via a 256-bit bus. The video outputs are also no surprises: two DVI ports and port-L mini HDMI.
The map is far from being discrete, resuming Zotac colors are black and tan orange. The cooling system consists of a radiator through which the heat pipes of a good size, all broken by a model of 92 mm. The whole is rather quiet in idle and somewhat audible support. It remains far nevertheless turbine ... For an overclocked model, it is very convenient.

The Democratic presidential candidates, instead of bashing international trade, should be touting its contribution to shoring up a souring economy.
The Democratic presidential candidates, instead of bashing international trade, should be touting its contribution to shoring up a souring economy.
In 2007, exports rose 12 percent to a record $1.6 trillion in goods and services, according to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. That growth accounted for more than one-quarter of the increase in the gross domestic product.Exports are one of the few bright spots in an economy that Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke acknowledges appears to be heading into recession. And the relative strength of Washington state's economy — where one in every three jobs is trade-related — is testimony to the benefits of trade.
But that point is all but ignored in Sen. Barack Obama's remarks prepared for an AFL-CIO meeting Wednesday in Philadelphia.
"Now, if we're honest with ourselves, we'll acknowledge that we can't stop globalization in its tracks and that opening new markets to our goods can help strengthen our economy," Obama's speech reads.

Would he want to? Really? Stop it in its tracks?
Obama goes on to promise the union members he'll vote against the pending trade agreements with South Korea and Colombia, and he'll oppose permanent normal trade relations with China.
How would that affect Washington state? Gov. Christine Gregoire signed the first and so-far only trade agreement between a state and China last year. She's also a superdelegate who endorsed Obama.
This page has endorsed Barack Obama for the Democratic nomination with conviction he would be an excellent candidate for president, but he must state that he will not backtrack on trade.
Sen. Hillary Clinton, who supported the North American Free Trade Agreement during her husband's presidency, suggests it be renegotiated. What if Canada and Mexico say no to renegotiation? Washington's two U.S. senators, who have endorsed Clinton, should be bending her ear.
Funny, but the candidates hit the anti-trade mute button when they travel into states like California, Washington and Texas.
Business leaders and elected officials here discount the campaign rhetoric as just that — a means to get elected but not a sign of new policies that will foreclose expanded trade. We hope they are right.

If we lose every conference game in basketball and football, would that be a conference and NCAA record? We are half way there.../sarcasm/
Last edited by PolkCityClone; 11-26-2008 at 07:58 AM.
So it begins...........
//runs back into fallout shelter
That would require losing 16 basketball games in a row... so we are actually only 33% of the way there.
If you are going to go gloom and doom at least get your numbers straight.
I'm sorry, but I don't think we're bad enough to not pull off at least one conference win. I really don't know what to think about this team and we won't really know how things went until the end of the season. The same rings true for every sport and season. Maybe we lose 5-6 more nonconference games. Maybe we don't. Maybe we win 6,7,8 conference games. Maybe we win 1. Won't know until we play them, which is why we stick around and watch!

sweet! we're being talked about on the same level as Prarieview A&M!! ISU athletics has fallen to a new low!! Atleast for how some of you think, I however am staying optimistic about this team. I realize they are VERY young, there will be plays like last night where you think WTF?!? There will probably also be just as many times where we go WOW! DID YOU SEE THAT?!? just keep watching, season is as young as our team!
I really don't even see this as being anywhere close to happening.
"Seven minutes to glory."
I guarantee we will win some conference games.
Wow the optimism for this bball season really took a nosedive after 1 bad game.

If you are going to go gloom and doom at least get your numbers straight.
More like 38.4%. Get your numbers right if you are going to criticize my numbers.
You know what, I dont write on here very often but its really frustrating to here how negative some of you are. I live in Kansas City and I can tell you that people down here think we have the best fan base in the Big 12. That is because not only do we flock to every game but we are positive and passionate about our squads. I even have a friend who is a die hard Alabama fan and used to live there so he is familiar with thier fan base. He claims our fan base is right up there with the Tide's. That being said, stop going around pouting after every loss. Instead, lets stay behind our guys and continue to be one of the most respected fan base's in the country.

8 conf. fb games... all lost... 16 conf bball games.
8+16 = 24... so we are 8/24 so far... isn't that 33%... or am I really wrong?
If we lose all conference games in football and mbball in a single season I think I might join the finding a new conference talk. As a matter of fact there should be an NCAA rule that says if you suck that bad in one year you must find a new conference.

How to Photograph Architecture | Steeples, Sugar Shacks, and Skyscrapers
The left photo of the oil house at Pemaquid Point makes it look like a beach ball. The sides and top are bowed out instead of being straight. Barrel distortion is caused mostly by wide-angle lenses, so try to back up and use a longer lens. You could also fix the picture with photo editing software like Lightroom, as I did on the right.
Light and shadow:
Harsh shadows are a problem in any image, including architectural photography. Because cameras can't handle contrast as well as our eyes, a picture will lose detail in either the highlights or the shadows or both. If you're shooting a cathedral, you don't want to lose the gargoyles in the shadows!
The picture on the left has a pretty blue sky, but the shadows have swallowed the detail of Rockport's Motif #1 fishing shack. The middle image was taken on a cloudy day, and has excellent detail on all sides. The third photo is a tonemapped (software-enhanced) version of the first picture. Here are my suggestions for getting good light in your architectural photos:
- Shoot on a cloudy day or a day with hazy sunshine to soften the shadows. This is by far the easiest way to get a good exposure. Or shoot at dusk or dawn for a romantic look with soft shadows.
- Observe your subject at different times of the day and take note of the direction of the light. Choose weather and a time that makes the building look good.
- If you must photograph in sunshine, try to include only the sunlit sides of the building. Or try to include only the shaded sides. The problem happens when you try to combine bright and dark.
- Software such as Lightroom and Photoshop can reduce the contrast in the computer.
- Take three bracketed exposures (one normal, one dark, one light) and combine them with HDR software in the computer. If you have only one exposure, HDR apps may still be able to improve the exposure with tonemapping.
I love trees. Buildings without trees look sterile and lifeless. But in the summer, when the leaves block the line of sight to a building, I wish I could move them around a bit. Another problem is their shadow. It is so much easier to get a good picture of architecture in winter or spring, before the trees leaf out. If you're shooting in summer, as most of us do, try to pick a cloudy day or a time of day that doesn't throw shadow on the building.
The first picture shows how trees can obscure the view. The other two show bare branches which allow a clear view of the subject. The white house, actually the Hill-Stead Museum in Farmington, CT, is my favorite because it was taken in April, when the trees were starting to have red buds and delicate, golden leaves. Early spring color breathes life into a scene.
Traffic lights and phone poles are just a mess. Wires clutter sky and subjects. And signs block the view. Try to find an angle that minimizes these distractions. If I'm working with a partner, I will stand in the middle of the street to avoid wires. Or I'll try the view from the back of the building. Sometimes I go to the second floor of a building across the street to get above the obstructions. If I can't eliminate them all, I try to place wires in an empty patch of sky, where I can remove them later.
The Do's of Architectural Photography
Now that we've solved all the problems we might find in architecture, let's have some fun with architectural photography.
A building is a box. It could be tall, or it might be wide. But it's just a box until you see the details. Doors, windows, gables, roofs, ornaments, and trim give architecture its personality. Zoom in on the details to capture that uniqueness. On the other hand, offices and condominiums have repetition of patterns that is also interesting.
Age: Historical buildings often have a presence far beyond their original design. They may have beautiful details or be sturdy and utilitarian. They may show the footsteps of hundreds of factory workers or the tarnish of a timeworn farm. Think of the spacious rooms of a turn-of-the-century mansion. Can you envision it when it was young? Can you show the fine dining room, the maid's quarters, the state of the art kitchen? This is where you use your imagination.
Style: Contemporary buildings are usually shot in a soaring, contemporary style. Highlight any unusual angles or textures or reflections, since they are part of the design. If you're shooting a Georgian colonial, show its symmetry and solidness. A Victorian cottage has Gothic details and bright color. Each style of architecture has features which can be emphasized.

A lovely home in a very central yet in a quiet street without noise.
But there is a little lack of service, blah. there were only two wine glasses and there may well be 4 pers. So a little more glass also small glass "snaps".
Next time will have to go there will want to stay there again.
En dejlig bolig der ligger meget centralt og alligevel i en stille gade uden støj.
Men der er lidt mangel på service, bla. var der kun 2 vinglas og der kan jo være 4 pers. Så lidt flere glas også små glas til " snapsen".
Næste gang vil skal derned vil vil gerne bo der igen.
All results to be satisfactory
Alles zur Zufriedenheit ausgefallen
Great apartment located in the heart of Prague! Choose this place if you going there!
great central location. Super restaurant downstairs in the house!
The rooms facing the courtyard very noisy due to construction work. Clean and well!
tolle, zentrale Lage. Super Restaurant unten im Haus!
Das Zimmer zum Innenhof sehr laut wegen Bauarbeiten. Sauber und gut!
Nice lejlighed, very closed to the center of Prague and easy to take metro but there are much noise at night.
Había muchos ruidos de los tranvías que pasaban. Mucha claridad las cortinas no eran opacas. El apartamento estaba sucio, no sé si esto se debía a que era agosto. Utensilios adecuados. Encantadoras las chicas de la oficina donde hay que recoger las llaves. Cerca de los sitios.
Near to the center of the city by bus even the bus stop is near.
Shops like Tesco are in front of the building so you can buy food, drinks from 7 AM to 9 PM!
No air conditioning although in the flat there are two boards to adjust it, the owner answered me that in the center of Prague it's not allowed. During our days the flat was at 29ºC all the day so very difficult to be inside.
Mosquitos, a lot. as we couldn't open the terrace due to them and the temperature was very high, it was difficult to pass our days.
Reception in the building, no english spoken.
You have to go to a different office (near the main train station) to take the keys and the information.
Some things were broken (flush in the toilet, some bed clothes).
And the worst thing, there are not courtains to protect against the sun in the morning, so it seems you are sleeping in a terrace. The first day we were awake at 5.45 AM!! The rest of the days we avoid to sleep in the bedroom and we decided to sleep in the salon where the sun didn't shine so strong.
Beautiful house in a quiet residential area.
Not really suitable for 11 people, but rather up to 8 or 9. We sat there with our family of 6 and it was perfect. It was bigger and there was much more luxurious than expected.
Everything we needed was present and working properly.
The house is not really next to the metro, but a 10 minute walk from the station. Then another 10 minutes by subway and you're right in the center.
Retrieving the key was an adventure in itself, with the car right in downtown Prague, but the host was extremely helpful and friendly. And luckily we did not bring all the way back to the center of the key.
Definitely worth repeating !!!
Prachtig huis in een rustige nieuwbouwwijk.
Niet echt geschikt voor 11 personen, maar eerder voor maximaal 8 of 9. Wij zaten er met ons gezin van 6 en het was perfect. Het was groter en er was veel meer luxe dan verwacht.
Alles wat we nodig hadden, was aanwezig en werkte naar behoren.
Het huis ligt niet echt naast de metro, maar op 10 minuten loopafstand van het station. Dan nog 10 minuutjes met de metro en je zit midden in het centrum.
Het ophalen van de sleutel was een avontuur op zich, met de auto midden in centrum Praag, maar de host was uiterst behulpzaam en vriendelijk. En gelukkig hoefden we de sleutel niet helemaal naar het centrum terug te brengen.
Absoluut voor herhaling vatbaar!!!
Prima locatie. Appartement was netjes en goed voor een groep van 6.
Todo perfecto. Solo eché en falta un microondas e instrucciones para el uso de la TV.
- Quality assured accommodation
- Every host is verified by telephone
- Secure payment via SSL encryption

"My daughter wanted to have a "unicorn" theme party this year, and this invitation was perfect. We loved the pink/puple/blue color and the ability to personalize it. I am always so happy with the quality from Tiny Prints. I use them for every special occasion."
"Most kiddie invites are too bright and cartoonish. These still embrace the childhood whimsy while staying classy and timeless. Very good quality paper and I upgraded to the colored envelopes and was very happy."
"This was a great invitation for my daughter's Under the Sea/Bubble Guppies birthday party. I received many compliments from our guests. I would definitely recommend upgrading and getting the gold envelopes. They added a little glamour to the invitations."
"I love the round edges and the design with shadows. The leaves on the personal picture was a beautiful touch. We were having a fairy performer for my daughter's birthday and this card was perfect for it! I love that the card emphasized my daughter's picture since the design was simply elegant."
