More Than Just Fire - Part 2

In continuing the theme of shooting more than just fire pictures I'm posting some I've taken around downtown primarily.



I saw this church through what used to be a self pay parking lot, the sign was missing but the frame was still hanging on the post.  I took the shoot as if looking through a frame of the church steeple.  I then covered it to B&W, leaving the color intact through the frame.


This is looking at the car door of a car the Training Academy has burned several times teaching recruits about combating car fires.  I was attracted to the patterns of the rust spots on the door.


This is a large rusty chain attached to a huge concrete block on the prop field of the Training Academy.  I'm not positive what its original use was but I think it has some sort of marine application.


This was taken on the side of Three George's Candy Shop in downtown Mobile.  The color of the wall along with the street lamp and star is what caught my attention.


This is a view of the RSA tower looking east past Spot of Tea on Dauphin Street in downtown Mobile.  I think the RSA Tower is a very popular structure to photograph here in Mobile.  It is the tallest structure in the State of Alabama.  I know I've taken my fair share of photos of it.


I was walking into a restaurant on Conti Street one day to have lunch when I noticed this doorway across the street on the opposite corner, I walked back to my car and grabbed my camera and starting taking shots of it.  To me it had a unique look to it.  If you look closely you may see the heart on it.  I like doorways and will probably be taking more photos of them in the future.



In a previous post I submitted photos of the USS Alabama Battleship Park.  One of the other things abut the park is the rose gardens on the grounds of the park.  There are several different colors, red, purple, orange, pink etc.  These are a couple I took photos of while there.



These are of the Cathedral of Immaculate Conception located in downtown Mobile.  It's a beautiful church and another one of those structures that photographers like to shoot.
