Overcast Pictures
We had a change in plan... We were all going to see the Body Worlds 3, but we were on a time crunch, so went downtown instead:

![]() Great work, HoustonTexas!!! Although overcast doesn't help to take the sharpest, clearest images - not that your photos aren't clear, in contrary - it does help avoid overexposed photos. Houston is pretty photogenic, I think, so it looks good either way. Too bad the camera died, but the tour was truly nice. Can we expect a Part II?

Those are some excellent overhead shots. And that last pic in Herman Park looks very nice, IMO. Something about nature and man and so forth. Nice mix.
