Ghost Tower

Several weeks ago I visited the new Indianapolis Airport and wrote a post that I published shortly afterward on this site. I took this photo then too. At the time, I wasn’t sure what the shot would look like, but after I saw the result, I knew I couldn’t discard it. It was just too interesting to me…artistically that is.

The face of the main airport terminal is made up entirely of large glass panels. From where I was standing, the terminal was directly in front of me, and I was on the roof of the parking garage about two hundred yards away across from it with a zoom-lens.  Directly behind me in the opposite direction was the huge Airport Control Tower…Oh, maybe 2,000 yards or so behind me. Looking at the terminal though, I could see the image of the tower reflected in the glass panels.  I wasn’t sure how the camera would record it. If you look closely, you can still see the white beams and infrastructure of the terminal inside.

I try to enjoy everything and have fun no matter what I’m doing. So this photo and post ‘reflects’ on me too.
