Thank you, Craig! ; I tried to use all my photographic knowledge. ; Working with a group of photographers who understand the process, we all went about our business and shared ideas in real time. ; Those who have never done a photowalk, meetup or one of Tim's meets at WDW, it's very creative and a lot of fun. ; Pixelmania is going to be great.
Speaking of ghosts, another strange thing happened at the Landmark...
Nikon D70/Tokina 11-16, 30s, f/16, 200 ISO, +0.3 EV, 11mm focal length

Micheal, you sure are right about that. ; It's amazing how America tends to replace old things instead of preserving them or find uses for them. ; When I was in England, it wasn't unusal to see structures hundreds of years old still being used for homes, businesses and tourism.
What's surprising is America loves the retro look of new things. ; Why not save the "retro" in the first place? ;
; The non-profit organization which cares for the Landmark has done an excellent job of bringing back the glory of this old theater. ; There's still work to be done in the theater itself. ; Most of it is behind the scenes as they bring backstage up to standards to be able to host shows like "The Lion King" in the future. ; You know I'll be there to see that one!

Excellent series Scott.
As for how our country seems to act, I think it's a combination of several factors, including not building things to last, not wanting to be like where our founders came from, and poor planning to begin with - having to raze structures to make ones that have more capacity, i.e. townhomes where single family homes once stood.
This is also why SoCal has horrible traffic, but it's only been in the last few decades that we figured out the best way to build in an EQ zone. ; Except for Newport Beach, where it doesn't matter. ; Everything will sink when the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_liquefaction">ground liquifies</a>.
