these are a few years old, but I was reminded of a few shots from other posts. These are all scans so unfortunately the color/quality is muted and not so great. I need a better scanner.






a morning cliche shot









i thought the green grass in the middle of all the drabness was cool. the original is much greener.



I really love the colors and textures of landmark



spring



lying on my back experimenting(with a camera!)



again texture and color



a building I miss



a building I'll miss



there was something about the colors and contrast I liked here. It certainly doesn't look like something close to DTO.

Awesome pictures. The view from the Gene Leahy Mall in the fifth one down makes me think of a mini version of New York's Central Park.

Everytime I see "DTO" it makes me think of DTO Luv. So when I read the title of this thread I thought "Why are we taking pictures of....oh, wait..." Smile

All I see are little red X's. Sad Try hosting on photobucket or similar site, Geocities is a real loaf when it comes to image hosting.

I should copyright DTO. I kind of don't like using the abbreviations for the place because it sounds self serving but it is such a common term on this site that it warrants an abbreviation.

Even I, Captain Anti-ConAgra, have to admit that's a pretty cool shot.

Great photos.

And I hope that was sarcasm when you said you missed the Swanson Plant.

A great collection of pics!! The composition of the Swanson Bldg.
shot even made it look 'not so hideous"!!
Too bad that 'Tank Farm' isn't slated for relocation.
A lot of space, close to a lot of people, that could be
better used! What is the history of this site?

I thought that might of been one of the sites for the formerly proposed DT theme park.
