Thanks very much! Sumpter250, Reinhard & Matt, for your interest & posts!
Matt, I`m so glad that someone finally said something about those signs.
I enjoy modeling with a sense of humor!
Reinhard, wow! Eye Candy...nobody has ever used that term to describe my photography before. So a big THANK YOU for that!
Here are a few behind the scenes photo`s of the construction of Doan Towers the movie! Just kidding about the movie part.
Workers laying floor tiles can be seen through the front windows.
The End?

This is not meant to detract from your fine modelling but your photos reminded of the old black and white silent movie of Harold Lloyds antics on a skyscraper.

I will have to remember that one. It's little details like that , that bring "life" to a scene.
Makes all the difference in the world.
We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!

Thanks Sumpter250! Here is a better look at those workers laying floor tiles before it got placed into Doan Towers.
