union station

union station

the last song in the song challenge is today and really I am at aloss for what to put so no song for today.  Instead I am leading into my may pictures which will be some travel shots. 

the above shot is from union station in washington dc.  I ove that hallway and my friend over at what eyes see daily has a way better shot with few people in it.  check it out.

this is also my repreating pattern post for Brenda's photo challenge  the above picture and this one below taken at the station as well.

  2. I love the almost black and white effect of the first photo. As for the gold that's a lot of gold leaf.
