Historical Abstracts - The Pizitz Building

I confess, this was my favorite stairwell in the entire Pizitz Building. I have no idea how the fabulous color and dark spots came to be, but I'm grateful. I shot this through the railing spindles. Thank you Tom Walker for holding up the awful orange construction extension cord every single time, so I could capture this wonderful wall.



I will be exhibiting my Pizitz prints on Thursday, November 3 from 4:30 - 7:30 at The Henhouse Antiques in English Village. I hope you will stop by, have a look, and say hello!

Birmingham From Above



A few weeks ago, as I was having a look at my city from high atop the Pizitz Building, my camera zeroed in on the rooftop of the Kress Building ( 1896). When I was growing up, Kress was a "five and dime store." I"m happy to see it find new life in downtown! Much more to come.
