Austin landmarks

[The Rookie]

I am trying to take some pictures of austin landmarks to frame and such but i really cant think of any besides the 360 bridge and the tower and capitol. Any ideas on others? Thanks

What about Barton Springs? The Capitol? The SRV statue on Town Lake? The view of Lake Travis from the Oasis?

Ooops! You put Capitol--sorry! Can you get a picture of the bats coming out from the bridge?

St. Ed's

take a pic of the main building, then stand on the steps and take a pic of downtown.

Mount Bonell, Bob Bullock Museum - pretty big-*** star in front, 6th Street, Leslie, the King on 6th Street playing his bass guitar, Umlauf Sculpture Gardens, Botanical Gardens, Town Lake, Austin Skyline from Barton Creek Mall parking lot, Paramount Theater, and some people (not me 'cause this place is waaay over rated ) might say the original Threadgil's.

I would have to wonder about anyone who would want a framed picture of Leslie on his wall.

 

[The Rookie]

LOL yeah i dont know if i want a picture of Leslie in a thong in my house

some ideas are the Governor's Mansion, moonlight towers, and of course DKR Texas Memorial Stadium. You can also reserve a spot to tour the Tower observation deck. Some of the best photos I've ever taken was from atop the Tower.

Good ol' Littlefield Fountain (after the stupid construction is done) or the East Mall Fountain (when the sumbitches have it running)

The convention center looks cool from different views as well. Most of the other crucial places have been noted.

Just so you know, the Tower Observation Deck was closed for tours once our fearless leader announced the "CODE ORANGE THREAT" level. I'm not sure if it is still closed, you may want to check. A picture collage of Austin Landmarks would not be complete without a portrait of Leslie!!!

traffic on MoPac would be a good shot of an Austin landmark....

Photos of the rubble of an imploded Hard Rock and CSC buildings would be suitable for framing.

 

[Macanudo]

Yeah, Jackie that would be cool.

How about... The Tavern, the original Kirby Lane on a Sunday when there's a crowd, Jaime's, A shot from the deck of the Oasis, Jester Beach on a sunny day, The south mall looking towards the Capitol, downtown from the 360 overlook, El Arroyo's sign board when they have a funny one up, the Littlefield House, Caswell House, Governor's Mansion.

The Driskill Hotel.

From the 6th & Brazos side. Lots of history (Texas and National) inside those walls.

Congress Ave. bridge with the bats flying out.

Oil Can Harry's

There are a ton of cool murals around UT and around town that might be suitable for photographs.

As weird as it sounds, you might look at the Texas State Cemetery for some good shots of some legendary Texans in the ground.

Hardin-House would be nice photo material.
