Sad little tree -- reminds me of Harold and Maude when they replant a poor city tree in the forest. Ah, where are H&M when we need them

How crisp this photo is -- and the delicate curtains like in my file room? LOL

Except for the railings -- this could almost be the Colusseum in Rome -- beautiful!

Wow. I'd love to read more about technique. "Bleachers"...how was this done? Incredible!

no wonder why I got these tickets so cheap....theres a TREE IN MY WAY!

You have a lot of beautiful night shots.

Holy shit! And I'm thinking it's a baseball field when it's actually a football field!

love this picture, very nice!!!

Great shots.

I love Paterson. Hinchcliffe Stadium should be renovated as a center pice of the Great Falls district.

Keep shooting. Great stuff.

Hey Mr. Motts -- Just a bit of history from an old fart (73) who remembers several years of stock car racing here during the late '40s and early '50s. The track was clay and ran the complete perimeter of the stadium. Yeah, it was a tight track. but race cars in those days didn't go all that fast. They also held some open wheel races here, and at least two or three hell driver shows a year (local boy Jack Kochman was a favorite). I don't know what year staged the last race -- I moved out of the state in 1950 and have never been back since. But thanks for the memories -- I never thought I'd see the stadium again.

There's a lot of graffiti for sure.

I'm glad you didn't know how to fix the tungsten lighting when you took these. They take on a totally different aspect, and seem harsh and unreal. These could have been taken in the bleachers on Mars!

And long beany-type seed pods? If that's it, there are exactly 12 of them in my area.

They are sumac trees. There is no mistaking it.

Shytown got his bubble bursted I figure. A locust tree is a hardwood with much smaller and rounded leaves. Nasty thorns on them also.

lone tree wateing for the game to start!
