Default snooping around our tv station

Well, today is my birthday (44) and I contemplated doing an adult cake smash along the lines of Rutie Mae's work but no, my wife wouldn't have it......wasn't going to have a perfectly good cake wasted for the sake of a picture.......so I'll just have to settle for showing you my adventures around channel 27, our local NBC affiliate...taken on New Year's Day on the way home from work. Ball is the Doppler Weather Radar. Actually took these out the rear passenger door window of my car while in the driver's seat in the station's driveway heading out......It's a good stretching exercise!

Happy Birthday, guy. That TV station looks more like a NASA station.

I like these, They look like something out of a Sci-fy movie. The b/w is very effective.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

I really love the shapes and shadows. I think the second one is awesome !.. Nice job shooting of the car window Pat, they are very clear with no reflections.. I wouldn;t know if you didn't tell me. I also like how the clouds caused shadows in the dishes.

Very interesting and well done OLD MAN !

Birthday-1


I don't know if I should be sending flowers to a male but I have noticed you have a certain fondness for them. Happy Birthday, hope you have a great day. (all the talented people are born in January )
As for the television station, are you sure it is not some sort of intelligence headquarters or something with all those radars? hmmmm.
