    What model of "Canon Rebel"? And... you're going to take black-and-white photos? You know, you didn't need a "bad ass camera" for that. :cool:

    There are possibly a bunch of landmarks around the museum district and a bunch of fountains and sculptures along Allen Parkway/Memorial Drive.

    Do those fountains on Main @Holcombe still exist? The cylinders that go from tall to short.

    ^ Yes. It's called Texas A&M Park and it's in the shape of an arrow. :cool: They make very good scenery for photographs.

    Hey NateNate... sorry I haven't been back here in a minute, but I'd have to share only my shots which aren't great (I'm not a pro!). The Mrs. has some great stuff of the Menil/St. Thomas/Glenwood but being such a stickler about her images, she'd wantto put some sort of protection on them...

    I'll ask her and keep you posted. Message me through the board if I forget...

    pacman0590, you never answered what model.
    She can still post the small/low-resolution awesome photos... with her company/name logo on them... in slight opacity. You know? SHARE, man. :eek: There's nothing wrong.
