Visualist Images Photography, Austin Texas » Frost Bank http://johnrrogers.com Austin Texas Photographer, John Rogers Thu, 26 Jan 2012 23:20:30 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 New Austin Skyline; March 2010 http://johnrrogers.com/texas-buildings/new-austin-skyline-march-2010/ http://johnrrogers.com/texas-buildings/new-austin-skyline-march-2010/#comments Fri, 05 Mar 2010 17:28:44 +0000 John Rogers http://johnrrogers.com/?p=1078 A storm was moving over Austin the afternoon I photographed the new Austin Skyline from Congress Avenue. As the new buildings are providing an ever changing skyline, new ‘icons’ appear. For several years it has been the Frost bank building. (The ‘pointy’ building on the right of this photo.) I believe for the next few years it will be the “Austonian”. (The tall building on the left.) It’s very challenging to find a good view showing the new skyline that also includes ultimate Austin icon, the Texas Capitol.

I do a fair amount of Austin Stock photography sales so I am always looking for new images. Yesterday the clouds were looking interesting so I decided to do a little walking around downtown looking for photo opportunities. I parked my car on Congress Avenue (the main street in downtown Austin) and this wall was directly in front of me. I’m not sure why I had never noticed it before, but it was calling my name. I particularly like the juxtaposition of the ‘spear like’ Frost Bank building as though it’s providing an alternate answer to the message on the building.

Look for the Spear, Austin Texas
