  2. He might be thinking either "I wonder what is taking them so long?" or "I wonder where I left my library card."

  5. Excellent photo! - and it just begs the question of what your man is doing, standing there.

  6. Great photograph! And, there is a bonus for me seeing a building that many of my family members visit regularly doing genealogy searches. Wonderful!

  8. I needed a figure standing there, so I asked a homeless man to stand there and gave him a dollar to do it He was happy to oblige.

  10. Nice night shot. I love all those windows. (Of course, that makes me wonder about keeping them clean...) Your silhouette subject seems a bit leary about going inside. I didn't realize theme day was still going on despite the demise of th CDP portal.

  19. What a fabulous night shot! He looks like he is contemplating whether to go in or not.

  20. Nice. The figure outside is so ambiguous. Does he want to enjoy the riches inside or is he afraid?

  21. Well, however you may have staged it, this is a crisp silhouette and a gorgeous building. Very nice, Jack!

  22. Lovely choice for Theme Day. Good on you for having the person in the photo to show scale. This is a building that invites one in.

  23. Good one Jack. I was rushed from being out of town and let the theme slip by me. I take my hat off to you on this one.

  24. Wonderful contrast between the man whose details are not visible and the gigantic building, whose details are impossible to avoid. Wonderful realisation of the theme.
