Awhile back I posted a similar image of the Texas Capitol Annex photographed during purple hour here that was shot on a photo walk with Trey Ratcliff. I actually shot this image several months before the previous posting and it has been quite successful for me. I license my images for use on websites, marketing materials & magazine publications as well as other uses. I also have prints and gift cards available of most of my images. Please contact me through the information provided on the contact page on my website page for more information.
Grand Old Texas Capitol

The Texas State Capitol is one of those “Grand Old Buildings”. I love grand old buildings. I understand that ‘old’ is a relative term and to those of you reading this in Europe or Asia, or in virtually in any country but America the Texas Capitol building completed in 1888 may seem relatively ‘new’. Regardless, even in the short span of 120 years the ability to create new buildings of carved granite has simply become too expensive. Today we create fabulous modern glass skinned buildings that while they are also often quite beautiful. They are never quite as grand.
