Lot’s of long-time residents have probably driven around Monument Circle a thousand times and never really focused on the scenes depicted in the statues around it’s base, like this one with a son saying farwell to his parents as he heads off to war. A camera with zoom lens really improves the perspective. When I first saw what the lens captured there, I was surprised at the detail and life-like quality. There is
Another jewel at White River State Park in downtown Indianapolis is the NCAA Hall of Champions. Of course at this time with NCAA basketball championships, the focus is on round-ball, but whatever college sport or legendary athletes that you identify with, there are tributes and fond memories to encounter. It’s more than a museum, it’s a hands-on experience where sports and memories come alive.
My favorite place there however is the downsized half-court which is made
If you’ve never been there or if it’s been a while, you might consider taking a couple minutes sometime to go inside the Old State House building downtown at the corner of Capital and Washington Streets. The architecture and features inside are truly remarkable.

How soon we forget. You have a few warm days and it’s so easy to block out the memory of the big chill a little while ago. I liked this shot and salted it away to bring out later for added effect. The sky had been very dark that day, but those clouds finally moved onward to the east, as you can see behind the buildings, and then the sun
I loved this structure and the concept from the first time I saw early drawings of what it was going to be. One of the most impressive features in downtown Indianapolis, not merely because of the distinctive architecture, but because it brings the converging elements of downtown together…spanning major arteries and linking adjacent hotels, businesses and Circle Centre. Years later, it’s still exciting to drive or walk around the corner, look down and see it there.
This view through American Legion Mall provides a timely perspective on both the current weather conditions and the Indianapolis skyline. The white streaks that are visible, especially on dark backgrounds, are snowflakes as caught by the camera lens as they float to the ground. I was close by so I stopped to see this scene on purpose. I’m drawn to the contrast that time provides… the ‘then and now effect’ if you will. Interesting
