Daily Photo Blog Theme Day: Metal

This is also my Gateway Series number Six

This statue commemorates the 2001 Winter Olympics which were held in Salt Lake City. There are quite a few beautiful reminders around town of that grand event. Next week I will be posting some photos of the Fountain on the Olympic Legacy Plaza. It puts on a spectacular show all day, every day - except maybe in the depths of winter, ironically.

That's an impressive sculpture with so much action in it - energy. Very nice. I remember watching those Winter Olympics on the television.

i was in Salt Lake City only a few weeks ago. Staying at St. George about 5 hours away but I came in for my last night before returning to France - to see a theatre performance my friend was appearing in.

I have been in Z Gallerie at least a dozen times. in fact I have some nice blackberry photos from in there.
On the name "stealing" issue; I don't feel you stole the name. In fact I only put Original on mine when the blogs for Salt Lake reached a whopping 4. Hard to believe there are 4 daily photo blogs for lil' ol' Salt Lake.
I just wanted to have something that would differentiate mine from the other three and "original" was the first thing that popped into my head.

I love your blog. I think you do a great job. I check it every day.

Keep up the great work.

Nice choice, especially for the summer where it looks very different from the olympics season
