If any of you want to take a picture of the Tulsa Skyline go to the Gray Snail Saloon on Cherry Street and go out on the porch area. The view is really something to behold. [;)]

yup... one of the best views anywhere in the city. That's why I can't understand why the old four-flat apartments on the east side of Peoria between 14th and 15th aren't super high-dollar in-demand units. That view from the front windows...

Here's one from the Peoria Bridge, just a block south. It is kinda pretty.

Great pics artist, tshane, and tulsamini! Thanks for sharing. Some of those pics were true art. Artist, do you have a dedicated website where one might buy some of your work? Seriously, I would consider purchasing some things from you if I could see a full portfolio.

Thank you Tulsa Fan.  I hope to have a dedicated website by sometime in June.  I hope to also have more pics by then as well.  It is my wish to have several different "series" so that people can buy several photos of a similar nature to have in arrangements.  I am going to try and start printing them as giclee on canvas as well.  Stay tuned, I have just started on this new endeavor and these things take time to get off the ground I am still trying to make a living doing my murals while in the middle of all of this too lol. btw my mural website is www.wfranklinstudios.com

The murals are awesome Artist. I especially like the one on the bedroom wall of a cottage and trees; it looks 3 dimensional. I look forward to your website and (if not too expensive!) I anticipate purchasing something. Good luck on your venture. I hope you become famous and that way I can say I was in at the ground floor! Send me a personal message once you get the website off the ground and I'll check it out right away.
Cheers

Well its June already and I dont have a dedicated website for my Tulsa photos lol.  But I have put a few new pics up.  Its amazing how much work getting a few good pics actually is.  I probably spent several hours downtown last weekend taking pics, managed to sneak into 3 of the larger churches.  Then spent a good 8-10 hours downloading, photoshoping, resizing, cropping, removing utility wires etc.  Then in the end managed to come up with perhaps 8 decent pics out of over 130 that I took that day lol. Boy I cant wait to get a decent camera with a tripod lol.  I am still considering most of these to be practice but I really hope you enjoy at least a few of them.  

 I have also started adding blurbs underneath the photos.  If I have anything wrong, or you know of something else interesting, about anything in the pics please let me know and add your comments.[:)]

Very nice photos!  I must say Tulsa truly has some stellar architecture.

Those are great. Have you checked out pBase? It is only $23 per year.

If you get the urge to do another expedition, I'd like to tag along.

Took some new pics today, thought I would share a couple that turned out ok. [:)]

This is inside the First Church of Christ, Scientist, looking up at the domed ceiling.  



We all know what this one is of.  I kind of like titling it "Faded Glory".

Can't decide between these two which I like better.

Thank you.  All I have at the moment is an old Casio 3meg camera.  Its nothing fancy but is giving me some practice untill I can get a good new one.  Its horrible at taking night shot pics and, doesnt have any motion stabilizer features, so am looking forward to the time when I can take some night photos of downtown buildings.  [:)]

Here is my flickr site with more Tulsa pics. http://www.flickr.com/photos/71912608@N00/
