Mall day

Piece of art at a car repair shop

It is a bit like E.T. grew up and is biking by himself.

They really try to attract attention

Reminds me of Dogma's Mooby the Cow.

Potential art car

Never deserted, even on a Saturday morning.

The fireman truck made me shoot this. And the building as the feel of the Las Vegas' Wynn.

World Cup time at the Mall

A big plantation of cacti in the middle of the walkway mall. The landscaping department sending a not so subtle message to shoppers about not messing with the greenery?

There was plenty of very expensive cars on display last saturday. I used to watch Formula 1 car racing a long time ago. That's an Indy car, but that must be close enough.

Beautiful landscaping art. A bit remininescent of the UTSW North Campus building shapes...

I couldn't get enough of that landscaping work.

It is creative in many ways.

Finally I got a snapshots of these cultural icons.

Like it and hate it at the same time. So many different symbols/interpretation to be thought of.

Turtle pile up, duckies

Last Saturday I jumped on the DART bus and went to the mall. For once I had my camera to take snapshots of scenes of interest (This is a very unbalanced view of the day. Dallas has its big share of sad scenes; but how to take pictures of 'la condition humaine'?).

Not yet ready to run around too much, so I decided to focus my activities around one spot of Dallas: the North Park mall. Haircut, movies, impromptu encounters with departmental co-workers, food shopping paced my day.

I went for the brainless fun cartoonish comedy time and it thankfully gave me quite a few laughs. 'The Greek' was actually pretty good. I couldn't believe the cameo I saw; it was one of the high points of the movie. 'A-team' was pretty fun too; so impossible in many ways but fairly well orchestrated for the genre.

During the day while I was picnicking with my ziplocked lunch and dinner, I felt weird to be probably the only one bringing my own food at the mall. But then again, I enjoyed my deli sandwiches, vegetable, fruits, and cocoa honey vanilla dessert.

Voilà, now I am back carrying my pocket camera with me :)
