Upde Designs

I want to show you some more of the Millwork District today.  I had every intention of converting these to black and white but I liked the vibrant coloration of the bricks and trim so much that I decided to leave them in color.  I did try them both ways but I have to admit as much as I do love black and white I just felt more comfortable with these in color.

The above image is another 7 image HDR capture.  We were rapidly running out of day light when I captured this image and it just didn’t do the brick work justice so I decided to do an HDR capture.

There are a lot of creative art work displays scattered around the project.  This is one of my favorites.    When this project is completed I believe there will be around 80 – 90 up scale apartments / condos available, professional office space and there will also be retail shops in the building.  Some very visionary people have invested a lot of money, resources, and energy in this project and I am hopeful that it will be successful.

Finally as we were getting ready to pack it in and go get some dinner I noticed this bright red step-ladder in the second story window of this building.  My original intent was to do the building in black and white and leave the room with its plywood and red step-ladder in color.  But I still liked the looks of the bricks in color.  Sorry Dana.  🙂

I’m going to continue to follow the progress of this project.  I hope to shoot a lot more images there and when some of the interior is completed I’ll attempt to get some shots of that as well.

That’s it for today.  Thanks for stopping by.  Enjoy your Tuesday and be careful.
