Aetna Building at Night





Who knows what goes on in here?  I think it is an ancillary building for Aetna Life Insurance Company.  As one drives past at night, the building is dark but the entrance hall with a wall-sized historic photograph is lit.  I always liked it, so I visited one evening when I had a camera and tripod with me.

    For awhile, I thought there is a group of people standing inside the lobby !

    It's an insurance company. Anything goes! Nice photo, though.

    What are all those people doing in there at night? :-)
    It really is a nice mural and it's great that they have it lit up at night.

    I like the effect of the large photograph inside.

    I don't know Jack, if you were passing by here at night you could get that feeling that you were being watched haha! It's kind of spooky in a funny sort of way.

    Looks like they're all in there, posing for the photo!! That could be pretty spooky late at night after one too many glasses of wine!! I love it! Hope your week is off to a great start, Jack!

    Looks like the Hartford reunion class of 1905

    Was that the Aetna gang lining up for a family portrait? Very cool image. Nice work on this night shot, Jack -- not easy.

    I like it a lot! Great shot, Jack.
    The bike traffic goes in both directions - there is a blue line dividing the trail into 2 and I think all the bikes in my shot were on the correct lane.

    I was wondering why there were men in bowler hats... :-)

    Neat that they have a photo there in the lobby. You should sneak in one day and take a closer look! :)

    This one reminds me so much of a program on TV called, "Dark Matter" that was on last night. Creepy.

    I don't think they're going to get a pay-rise, however long they sit there protesting. And it looks like they've been sitting there a long time!

    Nice that they keep it lit at night like that. It really does show off the photograph!

    He he he!
    At first I thought they were real people with costumes for some kind of celebration!
