The Covid pandemic forced the cancellation the festival in 2020 and presented a financial quandary for the committee because the festival had always relied on one year's festival revenue to support the next year’s. </p><p style="text-align: left;">Despite the financial troubles, the committee staged festivals in 2021 and 2022, both in Garfield Park on the Southside of Indianapolis. The event offered family-friendly activities, including and especially those oriented for children -- such as storybook readings, games, books, crafts, animals and animal demonstrations. </p><p style="text-align: left;">Alas, revenues were not sufficient to persuade the committee to hold a festival in 2023, and it was canceled. As of this writing, there has been no word whether the festival will be permanently shuttered. </p><p style="text-align: left;">Photos in this post were taken at the 2022 festival in Garfield Park.

destination for children and even adults who enjoy sledding at the first sight of significant snowfall.<div><br /></div><div>For many years, the hill at the north end of the park, about 80 yards west of Garfield Drive, was <i>the </i>place to go for sledding if you lived on the Southside. Sledders have since also ventured deeper into the park and used the hill behind the pagoda, between the arts center and amphitheater. </div><div><br />And whether the location are the hills at the north end of Conservatory Drive, as shown in the first three photos below, or behind the pagoda, as shown in the final trio of images, many a child who lived in the neighborhood experienced their first slide down a hill on a sled in Garfield Park.<div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a

center.</div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;">The park’s original municipal swimming pool was next to the pavilion for some 60 years. Today’s Garfield Park Arts Center, which is just west of the pavilion, used to be a community house, then a recreation center and bath house for swimmers to use during their visits to the pool. </div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;"><br />The pool was shuttered and covered over with a parking lot when the aquatics center opened next to Burrello Family Center in the late 1990s, during a major park improvements project. A few years after that, in 2006, came the transformation of the recreational center into the arts center. </div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;">The pavilion, however, remains and is one of only two shelters in the park equipped with electrical power outlets (the other is the pagoda). The pavilion also is a valued covered-space facility for major cultural and arts festivals. </div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="text-align:

</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif">The structure was put together with stone, cement and steel and its eaves were accented with elaborate wrought-iron ornamental trim.

a scare in 1973 when it was condemned as unsafe, but Margie Nackenhorst led a campaign
to raise enough funds to save the structure then worked successfully to
have the pagoda listed on the National Register of Historic Places, solidifying it as a permanent park fixture. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif">Please note

The first
concert I photographed there was a performance by Ann Williams at the MacAllister Amphitheater on July 16, 2004. The following month, on Aug. 21, in the Sunken Garden, I photographed the Naptown Strutters jazz ensemble featuring Tom Mullinix. <div><br /></div><div>On June 18, 2005, I was back in the Sunken Garden shooting a performance by
Indianapolis electric violinist Cathy Morris. She and her jazz
ensemble stood on the Sunken Garden overlook and played to a lawn-chair
audience below in the Garden itself.<p class="MsoNormal">The show started around 7:30 p.m., so the sun was starting to fall low to the horizon, visually handicapping the musicians, who were facing west on the overlook. At one point early on, Cathy asked the audience if anyone would loan her a pair of sunglasses, and one person succeeded in getting her a pair (see second photo below). She wore them for most of the rest of the show.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Cathy Morris, </span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">June 2005</span></b></div><p class="MsoNormal"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_tytxSwdmiFaN4clBme2jc5xQOlKp6hLbWfoqUm5ZDNIDJt__6Y08py9H1UMAPfNOFSqSI0KgNZq0occJQQMrLHVLoKgL8Xl-q6Fj5GsQrESCfTB5mendBGos_qnGlNthSHnYG30S4dl2bUXSlSgl_DVxYU0EOcJ0uhXUHfM9khrxhXci5mH8od5P8tA/s2132/06-18-05-Cathy-4a.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2132" data-original-width="1424" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_tytxSwdmiFaN4clBme2jc5xQOlKp6hLbWfoqUm5ZDNIDJt__6Y08py9H1UMAPfNOFSqSI0KgNZq0occJQQMrLHVLoKgL8Xl-q6Fj5GsQrESCfTB5mendBGos_qnGlNthSHnYG30S4dl2bUXSlSgl_DVxYU0EOcJ0uhXUHfM9khrxhXci5mH8od5P8tA/w268-h400/06-18-05-Cathy-4a.jpg" width="268" /></a></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span face=""Arial",sans-serif">I got my favorite photo of her show (above) before she solicited the sunglasses.

The mural, which was to be titled "Music," never made it to the stage, for reasons I never learned. Doing some painting here are (from left) Adam Clemens, then 10, son of Russ and Page Clemens, who live just south of the park; Mike Rogers, a neighborhood resident, a volunteer at park concerts and a member of Friends of Garfield Park Inc.; and Jackie Elliott.

source you want to believe) -- filmed in Garfield Park. <div><br /></div><div>It happened in the park’s Sunken Garden in July 2021, and the film was released the same year and entered in several film festivals in that year and in 2022. <p></p><p>The short, called <i>Paradox</i>, was about a female scientist who is told by a man traveling from the future that she will invent time travel, but before she can do that, she first must to do something out of her comfort zone -- meet and attract her future husband. The film wraps up in quick order, which should be obvious by the film's time length that I mention above. <br /></p><p>Indeed, the entire crew created a sci-fi world in the Sunken Garden and shot the film in one day.</p><p>"One of the challenges in writing the script ... is telling a complete story with some depth to it in a really short amount of time, to really have a full arc and everything," said director Glenn Pratt, who also co-wrote the script with Benjamin Dewhurst. The film's producer was Adam Janeira. The stars were Yasmin Schancer, Ransom Pugh and Isaiah Treadwell. </p><p>2) No, I wasn't there to see or even photograph the filming. I moved from Indy to North Carolina in summer 2017, but I <b><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13066382/" target="_blank">learned about </a></b><i><b><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13066382/" target="_blank">Paradox</a></b> </i>while doing research for this chapter. (There are four still photographs -- not mine -- of the film at the link in the previous sentence.). Sadly, there is precious little else about the film available online anymore. Even the film’s production company of record (Renegade) has vanished, and its website is no longer functioning. </p><p>While I knew nothing until recently about <i>Paradox</i>, the paradox of the situation is that in 2011, I <b><i>did </i></b>photograph the making of a different video short in Garfield Park. </p><p>It was a film with a very personal connection: The producer, director and cinematographer was my 16-year-old niece, Erin Dean, who lived in Glen Carbon, Ill., at the time but was in town with her family visiting for the Thanksgiving holiday. And at that point in her life, making and editing her own short videos had become a passionate interest. </p><p>That's Erin in the first two photos below, using a Flip Ultra HD camera to record scenes for the video, which you probably could describe as a family affair. </p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCx0X4XXx3LMjEv7hfgfJRuvOmCn1rp0QmWr1PdfB6F4XApAMfEdKZJwJfdXAzOIlhoYltwBR-fYoYg24cDUvFDz2sTQGpzXiidjHVUx0EqzCSsVobop3Gg6iaZLbQO_cj8377Y62xZ4v2fXddHaZCbQfMSSYVtMW9bXT7txwI8hUjo9zOpOmTHes_jHA/s4005/IMG_7843-2S.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4005" data-original-width="3071" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCx0X4XXx3LMjEv7hfgfJRuvOmCn1rp0QmWr1PdfB6F4XApAMfEdKZJwJfdXAzOIlhoYltwBR-fYoYg24cDUvFDz2sTQGpzXiidjHVUx0EqzCSsVobop3Gg6iaZLbQO_cj8377Y62xZ4v2fXddHaZCbQfMSSYVtMW9bXT7txwI8hUjo9zOpOmTHes_jHA/w306-h400/IMG_7843-2S.jpg" width="306" /></a></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhD43MET4KgiyxPXWnoeZr-BOd7HvDjphwURT8B9Q5V6g5XfnbP7TGCjW3PWEfyvPkzVJJLIpF9P_HfpfVFTcG5ia-mhey3eQSnhl5UhhmhvTAia-qCOvlogjJnuZGRRzzbSWH7L3HTSDXfdX8qAFnF8g5C9KWZc1FJR3USaw2BcLaLQtqEulMjzAKH18w/s5184/IMG_7853-2S.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="5184" data-original-width="3456" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhD43MET4KgiyxPXWnoeZr-BOd7HvDjphwURT8B9Q5V6g5XfnbP7TGCjW3PWEfyvPkzVJJLIpF9P_HfpfVFTcG5ia-mhey3eQSnhl5UhhmhvTAia-qCOvlogjJnuZGRRzzbSWH7L3HTSDXfdX8qAFnF8g5C9KWZc1FJR3USaw2BcLaLQtqEulMjzAKH18w/w266-h400/IMG_7853-2S.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">That's because two of the leading actors in the film are my grandchildren, Jakob and Lizzy Konz, who are cousins to each other and second cousins of Erin. The third main character in the film, a masked villain named Venom, is played by Jakob's older brother, Ricky Cathcart. Ricky was 8 years old at the time, Jakob was 6 and Lizzy was just a month away from her 6th birthday. Lizzy and Jakob appear in the first two photographs below. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Two years or so before this, Erin had acquired an interest in photography that evolved into video-making. She came up with a film story concept for <i>Bat Boy's Day Off</i> (Bat Boy being a child version of the famous <i>Batman</i> comics book and motion picture character) set in Garfield Park. And she thought it could work using her cousins to play key roles. So, when her family was in town, the kids walked the short distance to Garfield Park and started filming.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">The 3-minute video follows Bat Boy (played by Jakob) on his day off from work at his regular job. He happens to be sitting on the steps in front of his home when, a short distance away, Venom grabs an innocent girl (Lizzy), drags her her to a park lamppost and ties her hands behind her and to the pole. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Venom leaves to hide behind some bushes, and the girl screams for help. Bat Boy hears her plaintive cries and runs to the park, finding Lizzy at the lamppost. He looks around to hopefully fix an eye on some kind of explanation. Finding none, he runs to the pagoda and up the spiral staircase therein to get a good view of the surrounding landscape, using his powerful vision. He spots something, runs down the staircase and into the nearby meadow where by this time Venom has left his hiding spot and begun to approach Bat Boy. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaAA0Pq8FMY4vyvoqHMocRCpF7jbrFeIi4UOQ1LHbSskBqXszBpQY59o83O3uURZoszkLwFyXr-mNQc17j1pFH_-FFOnRJUTGwxDIJyPv_CE-DGLBJG62_bS236lxvV1DK698leesUVFTRDZEPguJSYXpebaW50xqZmIx2r6Cn6IGU3h9_jmhEMrIKv-s/s4188/IMG_7855-HDR2-S.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4188" data-original-width="2792" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaAA0Pq8FMY4vyvoqHMocRCpF7jbrFeIi4UOQ1LHbSskBqXszBpQY59o83O3uURZoszkLwFyXr-mNQc17j1pFH_-FFOnRJUTGwxDIJyPv_CE-DGLBJG62_bS236lxvV1DK698leesUVFTRDZEPguJSYXpebaW50xqZmIx2r6Cn6IGU3h9_jmhEMrIKv-s/w266-h400/IMG_7855-HDR2-S.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA3xzKVaZDGbZgOqiuhG15IFhaSl_bdtbGP5Li5jEpk4-sFO8W0GlYjX028Q-SJn4aRNBHgmSdWR56oWYySivoykcrvvvAWx4PqPKshBhC1U8xtd-Q-5-9TTXr2InbDblNqfm231MdUSBZbO1hputVXHHHldU4XRIwizeNpLJRRn0eC_QkOQ-xJ87b6Ug/s3924/IMG_7835-2S.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3924" data-original-width="3074" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA3xzKVaZDGbZgOqiuhG15IFhaSl_bdtbGP5Li5jEpk4-sFO8W0GlYjX028Q-SJn4aRNBHgmSdWR56oWYySivoykcrvvvAWx4PqPKshBhC1U8xtd-Q-5-9TTXr2InbDblNqfm231MdUSBZbO1hputVXHHHldU4XRIwizeNpLJRRn0eC_QkOQ-xJ87b6Ug/w314-h400/IMG_7835-2S.jpg" width="314" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">After a stare down of at least 10 seconds, Bat Boy and Venom simultaneously take swings at the other, knocking each other down. But Bat Boy's punch lands much harder, rendering Venom unconscious. Bat Boy gets up to his feet and removes the villain's mask to expose Venom’s identity (Surprise! It's Ricky!). Bat Boy returns to the girl, unties her from the pole and tells her they need to get out of there. The film ends with the two running from the scene and off into the distance. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I didn't stay long out there because it was cold, and as you can tell, Lizzy and Jakob wear coats/jackets when not filming, so I'm sure they were cold, too. Also in these pictures is my oldest son, Joey (holding Jakob's red jacket in the pictures), who is Jakob's father. In the closing credits of the video short, Joey gets a mention as an assistant director. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">My pictures don't include Venom because none of the scenes in the short time I was there involved him yet. But I took a screen grab from the finished video, and that's Ricky in the photo below at the point in the story that he grabs Lizzy.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHq5p9s_35VW7Vme5lrVCyd1x0lZociJJgAAQaTV9Tve2diqFE0iTxfs0MveDZkA1zR40UpFBbAWLwS6xEw2EVEoH_FYG-lbP4rGd76DFs4ZY8MMbKIAWH7rx4ikf7m8pVODZbLZ48r9JKWezWxL-0_58Oqt8i8gsof2dDjQdUoY9QwEFLaS0XFrTM_90/s4030/Venom%20grabbing%20victim-S.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2665" data-original-width="4030" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHq5p9s_35VW7Vme5lrVCyd1x0lZociJJgAAQaTV9Tve2diqFE0iTxfs0MveDZkA1zR40UpFBbAWLwS6xEw2EVEoH_FYG-lbP4rGd76DFs4ZY8MMbKIAWH7rx4ikf7m8pVODZbLZ48r9JKWezWxL-0_58Oqt8i8gsof2dDjQdUoY9QwEFLaS0XFrTM_90/w400-h265/Venom%20grabbing%20victim-S.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">There was a surprise mention in the closing credits that made us all laugh hysterically. Erin's younger sister, Becca, who didn't have a role in the film but stood around outdoors for the entire shoot, is credited for being "bored senseless."</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">That's Becca in the seventh photo below. Twelve years have passed since this video was made, so I won't swear to it, but it occurred to me recently when I came across that picture again that maybe Becca had bent over backward as shown to vocalize her utter boredom, and hence, the notation in the closing credits. The picture is out of focus, but the moment -- if indeed she is at her boredom apex in the photo -- seemed important to include here. (Sorry Becca!)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Erin has uploaded a copy of <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYhZv7se7TY" target="_blank"><i style="font-weight: bold;">Bat Boy's Day Off</i></a> to YouTube. Sadly, the closing credits are cut off just before the one for Becca would have appeared. You can view the video short by following the link in the first sentence of this paragraph. Erin did all of the editing and adding of background music to the video. Pretty impressive for a high schooler! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Please note: This video was recorded in good fun; it was not used for commercial purposes. Erin did make a couple other video shorts using her cousins as cast members when they were still small, but she used different venues for those.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Today, Erin is 28 and married and goes by Erin Valenti. She might still dabble some in video-making, but her real passion in recent years has been board games. In fact, she has written a book about them, <i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Love-Board-Games-Erin-Dean-ebook/dp/B07L3PHZZ3/ref=sr_1_1?crid=NKGVLBOQVQC4&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.2DsaDSRsh35JZ4e0u5XrnSkwCbGCyErQ5DS79hq1JRzJhKSCY1rmbydJ-ipPV5hLG8fO69EEATgjeHTbTR04tPvSQwqxadfsD2Vaa2rRQm5tudzNRLYSsXl9H-ZYwoOfLIFOBBoo45XzZg8s6mcRiH72WNMkuElFR55xeHk9LGbFNLqpVrx-D6qxmi6IQUpv9wIBrhbnac-diSMCTZFkP1lQs0VZ_TwLjrPkpFkvnxI.LREOvFIZymBNrJ_fY_MdaKYZt9GNiT3lphARBB2jmSE&dib_tag=se&keywords=Erin+Dean&qid=1709070405&sprefix=erin+dean%2Caps%2C133&sr=8-1" target="_blank"><b>For the Love of Board Games</b></a></i> (which is available to purchase on Amazon.com).

At that time, the attraction operated under the name Stars Under the Stars. </div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;">It would later become Indianapolis Theatre Association before finally changing to Starlight Musicals. Two years later, it moved performances between the State Fairgrounds and Butler University before making its permanent home in 1955 at the city-built Hilton U. Brown Theatre, 400 W. 49th St., very close to Butler’s Hinkle Fieldhouse. Starlight Musicals shuttered in 1993. <br /><br />In 1936, the then-young Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra began a tradition of performing at the amphitheater, and much later, the Indianapolis Ballet Theatre staged annual summer performances there in the 1980s into the ’90s. </div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;">Today it is used for all forms of concerts and music festivals, Shakespearean theater and sundry special events. One such special event occurred in 2010 when the amphitheater and adjoining grounds were used for the Indianapolis celebration of the Mexican Independence Bicentennial and Revolution Centennial (a separate future chapter is devoted to this). </div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;">In 2003, the amphitheater was added to the National Register of Historic Places, according to the website of Friends of Garfield Park Inc. </div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHkrS9DVCiZVZhnOZ_0FUJ6fVgBti5FR01izy0VeAh2v-lQyhkawaWpxfzmT4JdleH4jPt40XUca00_WCkn-q6erc_lgFiJaZZTWn-vwRRdOpFQlxsTebxKDRbbMUoCgj_FSkNmgNzDMdD1LZdfVDNwmdKM5SfhOuNuiM_BlPqW7rTwd5ImWvDKIQXd2k/w400-h266/IMG_2395.jpg" width="400" /></div><div><br /></div><div>The Indianapolis Brass Choir, as shown in the photo above, performed there on Aug. 22, 2013, as part of an Indy Parks Summer Concert series. <br /><br />Familiar pop, rock, country and even notable local acts also have performed at the amphitheater, including the Guess Who, Dolly Parton, Chuck Mangione, Porter Wagoner, Soul Asylum, the Wright Brothers, Billy Strings, Houndmouth, Ann McWilliams, Cathy Morris and Carl Storie, just to name a few. Beatles tribute band American English appeared there at least twice, in 2010 and 2019. The amphitheater also has hosted the annual "Opera in the Park" for the past two years. <div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTWRxu7VGw64ykcXj1-4b9QhzD2sCKIW7PkWlPf66ah5vYrjDDagw8IEpx6mQE1rpW2w0W-dCPanxTTWRRNe3XD4LDWmCuNRR1rKm9pniZ4P0w7jPNCHKcHoJnSDfUEfci8cipJpwBArCYm5mtOPm5Jl4uSHTu4uvQ9NB7AUs_QZiiWOleamsLLv8YmtA/s5184/IMG_9210.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3456" data-original-width="5184" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTWRxu7VGw64ykcXj1-4b9QhzD2sCKIW7PkWlPf66ah5vYrjDDagw8IEpx6mQE1rpW2w0W-dCPanxTTWRRNe3XD4LDWmCuNRR1rKm9pniZ4P0w7jPNCHKcHoJnSDfUEfci8cipJpwBArCYm5mtOPm5Jl4uSHTu4uvQ9NB7AUs_QZiiWOleamsLLv8YmtA/w400-h266/IMG_9210.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />For many years, the venue was known simply as the Garfield Park Amphitheater. After a major facelift in 1997, it was renamed the MacAllister Center for the Performing Arts in honor of Indianapolis businessman P.E. MacAllister, a longtime friend of Garfield Park. And in the 2010s, the name was shortened to simply the MacAllister Amphitheater. <br /><br />Theater via the works of the great bard William Shakespeare made use of the amphitheater for a summer series of free shows by two all-volunteer troupes at different time periods. The first, the Indianapolis Shakespeare Festival, debuted on July 9, 1981, with <i>A Midsummer Night’s Dream</i>. The ISF had a run of 11 years, and two years after that the series folded altogether. Fifteen years later, in 2008, new Garfield Park-South Neighborhood residents Joe Cook and Bradley Jones revived the concept under the name Garfield Shakespeare Company.

Garfield Park Branch of the Indianapolis-Marion County Public Library system opened in 1965 as IMCPL's Shelby Branch.</div><div><br /></div><div>It is along Shelby Street on the east side of the park, a very short jog from the Conservatory and just north of the tennis courts. Like Indianapolis Fire Department Station 29 on Pleasant Run Parkway on park land to the north and west, the library is a non-park institution that became part of the park by association as well as physical location.</div></div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_CZMqe5v6XL7LE8xNhTz9vxHi2Cctdsae4gVr2hv1ycaeNDJRxa0zmitu-hKprkmDSVLOdOoEKqa-V3XP7AK6CYlCymKoJI5rqGTNWSSgRkS7mOYEb5WVmZmRZiWnGAF7wEsG7sSJw_WiyX5AVt0sFFSrLUmbjZpvzD_Q0LRjOUc0LUP_rvY5ngFI4mA/s3504/08-11-08-Garfield%20Park%20shoot%20001-2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_CZMqe5v6XL7LE8xNhTz9vxHi2Cctdsae4gVr2hv1ycaeNDJRxa0zmitu-hKprkmDSVLOdOoEKqa-V3XP7AK6CYlCymKoJI5rqGTNWSSgRkS7mOYEb5WVmZmRZiWnGAF7wEsG7sSJw_WiyX5AVt0sFFSrLUmbjZpvzD_Q0LRjOUc0LUP_rvY5ngFI4mA/w400-h266/08-11-08-Garfield%20Park%20shoot%20001-2.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="text-align: left;">Its status as a park component was solidified in 2011 when, following an extensive remodeling, IMCPL renamed the library Garfield Park Branch. Media reports at the time explained the name change as a deference to neighbors’ wishes for the library’s identity to reflect its long and close connection to and relationship with the park.</div><br />Both photos of the library in this post were taken Aug. 11, 2008, three years before the major renovation and branch name change.<div><br /><div>In my years of living in the neighborhood, I made many visits to this branch, and with each trip its importance to the park became increasingly apparent to me. Unfortunately, I didn’t make more photos of it than what you see here. </div><div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2xVhZQyalUaUBb50JSdAh7hbg2JYEYdgmAwl-bne-sFIFn-IauZVOpMJxdANPuHGx_ECNTSAYcAzRI5fvucUx-N4IYzpLe1D8CXHdzWRulRKvBQb1Ejjsl4jCOOYBvpJPh967njSxLa1SXm2ArbEJ5zSDoVXEbijS8OELBNFJJmgAi-7jcDK-sBvUmV4/s3504/08-11-08-Garfield%20Park%20shoot%20052-2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2336" data-original-width="3504" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2xVhZQyalUaUBb50JSdAh7hbg2JYEYdgmAwl-bne-sFIFn-IauZVOpMJxdANPuHGx_ECNTSAYcAzRI5fvucUx-N4IYzpLe1D8CXHdzWRulRKvBQb1Ejjsl4jCOOYBvpJPh967njSxLa1SXm2ArbEJ5zSDoVXEbijS8OELBNFJJmgAi-7jcDK-sBvUmV4/w400-h266/08-11-08-Garfield%20Park%20shoot%20052-2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div>Not only did I spend a lot of time on the tennis courts with my children through the years, but those children also spent time there with other kids their age for several summers while enrolled in the annual National Junior Tennis League program. My two sons, especially, enjoyed the experience, and one of them even played the sport for three years in high school. </div><div><br /></div><div>I also remember the tennis courts because for the longest period — possibly 10 or more years — during warm weather months, I saw the same two women playing each other there at the same mid-day time every Wednesday almost like clockwork.</div><div><br /></div><div>Below are the only images of the courts that I took during my time in Indy. They were taken on Sept. 25, 2004. The last picture actually looks north into the park from just outside the west side of the fence surrounding the courts. </div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align:

Avenue and the railroad tracks that cross Southern.</p><p>I didn't know what the structure was, but I did know from what I was seeing and from the pictures that I took that the building had seen much better days. My first thought was that it might have been a picnic shelter, although I wasn't positive because it struck me as extremely narrow for a shelter house. I present some of the photos I took at that time at the bottom of this chapter. </p><p>But I start with pictures of the structure that I took in June 2016, when I was back in the southwest quadrant and noticed that the structure I'd seen several years earlier had been restored or possibly even replaced. But it STILL didn't look like a picnic shelter.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"> </span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3uXIzpexCk95NKlVoTyb6xjqba4fQqrRLake1BcxpIdwq6CV79ZluX5eyiKPHd_p7LGvv9JqPZqfLJc4sp8QN-CCcAJCbnr8WE5-neEfofnCLFAZZEVOt6-DNqaGydOXlcVgpG8jHBHDJeTYclaLz543__7Km6c5hEivlwz60ympjxELHYyOa8UMDvxE/s1366/IMG_0780_1_2_tonemapped.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="910" data-original-width="1366" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3uXIzpexCk95NKlVoTyb6xjqba4fQqrRLake1BcxpIdwq6CV79ZluX5eyiKPHd_p7LGvv9JqPZqfLJc4sp8QN-CCcAJCbnr8WE5-neEfofnCLFAZZEVOt6-DNqaGydOXlcVgpG8jHBHDJeTYclaLz543__7Km6c5hEivlwz60ympjxELHYyOa8UMDvxE/w400-h266/IMG_0780_1_2_tonemapped.jpg" width="400" /></a></p><p>So after taking these pictures, I went online at home and did a little investigative work. I learned that the structure I'd seen was a passenger shelter that was part of the old Indianapolis interurban transportation system and was believed to be one of the last wooden-splayed arched trolley shelters in the Midwest. It's so rare, in fact, that it is listed in the National Register of Historic Landmarks. </p><p>No wonder the city did nothing to rush into fixing what I had seen in 2011! But fix or replace it, it most certainly did. </p><p>The trolley system of transportation, also known as streetcars (and the interurban in Indianapolis) had its halcyon days in the U.S. between the two world wars. They fell into disfavor and eventually disappeared as individual automobile ownership became increasingly prevalent. The shelter in Garfield Park was near a stop on an old interurban route along Southern Avenue. (See photos below, which show a bench just off the Southern Avenue curb, where interurban riders probably sat and waited during pleasant weather). </p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhU65GhFzAvdvnx___jLWHyiDDAELcEnYh-z9faq-U2BwDxcFc_ToT4wMZV4gM5V1bosE1i6SQedj8gb_Yrhbgh-lpuJV5hjuUotte4i3dGY6lfgW5IQM5dOHwo3BgK9zik-wF0jbaCUgzO9tFFfVQ1TYC5ep2pl4jO9pHRvhMKyfwsBERcJTi6BDh_YJg/s1369/IMG_0783_4_5_tonemapped.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="912" data-original-width="1369" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhU65GhFzAvdvnx___jLWHyiDDAELcEnYh-z9faq-U2BwDxcFc_ToT4wMZV4gM5V1bosE1i6SQedj8gb_Yrhbgh-lpuJV5hjuUotte4i3dGY6lfgW5IQM5dOHwo3BgK9zik-wF0jbaCUgzO9tFFfVQ1TYC5ep2pl4jO9pHRvhMKyfwsBERcJTi6BDh_YJg/w400-h266/IMG_0783_4_5_tonemapped.jpg" width="400" /></a></p><p>Efforts to restore the shelter began in early 2014, three years after I was first there. The finished work includes new roofing, new support beams and a new concrete foundation (which sounds to me like a total replacement). Restoration was supported by the National Park Service Historic Preservation Fund administered by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources Division of Historic Preservation. </p><p>Also participating in the project were the city of Indianapolis Parks Department, the Indianapolis Parks Foundation, Friends of Garfield Park Inc., Indiana Landmarks, Efroymson Family Fun and the Indianapolis Trails Fund Inc. Coordinator of the project was Indy Parks' Tina Jones, park planner for historic landscapes and greenways.</p><p>Please note that you can click on any photo in this post to view a larger and sharper version. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

photos in this chapter are © by Joe Konz </span></div><br />In photography, the term "the golden hour" refers to a period of the day that photographers relish -- and exploit -- because of how its dramatic, splayed or patch lighting falls on various objects. The golden hour is usually an hour or so right before or after sunrise or sunset. <div><br /></div><div>Truth be told, I did little -- if none whatsoever -- shooting in the morning golden hour in Garfield Park. I worked many of those years, so I was either in the office or on the way there in the hour after sunrise. All my golden-hour of shooting was in the late afternoon near, at or after sunset.<br /><p></p><p>The golden-hour picture in Garfield Park about which I am most pleased is the first image you see below. I couldn't asked for better conditions -- a purplish sky and "golden" reflection on the Conservatory windows, topped with natural sparkling rays emanating from the lampposts (I did not use a light-sparkling filter enhancement, which some photographers will use to get that effect). </p><p>The photo was taken in the Sunken Garden as the sun was preparing to drop below park trees just a few minutes before it dropped below the horizon on Sept. 1, 2008.</p><p>The conditions I described above -- the sky color, golden reflection, sparkling lamppost lighting and even the remaining available light that enabled a viewer to appreciate detail of the garden -- were fleeting that night. But they came together at the right time for me; I was at a great right place at the right time. More "golden hour" photos in the park appear below. </p><p>Please note that you can click on any photo in this post to view a larger and sharper version of it. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQGiLSMFR7RFEHuCYTnAoOGQdSa56c8T_p7bmmbniRuCIJ5jfLn3s-XUzfNTTh76mNnBRuOw9fsYNpjdfnSRQisBXzCWjHLmEg3Hp9rDrjG89lIZ6wsRR4KGZN9ZE2JddVoSpuogZP8c64m2KToj1_JZwRQ_abLx_O4uwjw-339Y0lnxDUZRGHpF5AjBE/s917/09-01-08-Sunken%20Garden%20at%20night,%20Garfield%20Baptist%20Church,%20Andys%20001-7a.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="380" data-original-width="917" height="166" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQGiLSMFR7RFEHuCYTnAoOGQdSa56c8T_p7bmmbniRuCIJ5jfLn3s-XUzfNTTh76mNnBRuOw9fsYNpjdfnSRQisBXzCWjHLmEg3Hp9rDrjG89lIZ6wsRR4KGZN9ZE2JddVoSpuogZP8c64m2KToj1_JZwRQ_abLx_O4uwjw-339Y0lnxDUZRGHpF5AjBE/w400-h166/09-01-08-Sunken%20Garden%20at%20night,%20Garfield%20Baptist%20Church,%20Andys%20001-7a.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWy7UeoUIT15-h63D2CXj3duQOiqwiKV_HRJGAv7Q7lqlNCDt4t0xY_W6LtSngiK-BuUndT5GMoSqioVKsGgP3S30vULXjrCszGEt4xZkutGOYlB2ceNBzNqlrBsb6lbSjtLTNWNxXdB8eARg6CCcx59yFABC7AzpmrR8LSXH6avM-fSFiiYIdk4XjIwE/s1266/IMG_5216.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="951" data-original-width="1266" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWy7UeoUIT15-h63D2CXj3duQOiqwiKV_HRJGAv7Q7lqlNCDt4t0xY_W6LtSngiK-BuUndT5GMoSqioVKsGgP3S30vULXjrCszGEt4xZkutGOYlB2ceNBzNqlrBsb6lbSjtLTNWNxXdB8eARg6CCcx59yFABC7AzpmrR8LSXH6avM-fSFiiYIdk4XjIwE/w400-h300/IMG_5216.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-family: arial;">Above is a ground-level picture I took of some blades of grass, using the brilliant golden-hour sky for background -- and for backlight to make this silhouette.

Technically, the shot above of an empty beer can was not in Garfield Park, but it was very close to it. I came across it as I walked home from a park photography outing one evening. The can was situated close to a curb along Allen Avenue just south of Southern Avenue. I particularly like how the flare from the setting sun in the background introduced a secondary element to the composition.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">On Aug. 12, 2006, the men in the four photos below played some pickup basketball on the asphalt court next to Burrello Family Center in the hour or so before sundown. I made a point to grab shots both with the sun behind me (first two images below) and as a backlight source for silhouettes (second two photos below). You can hopefully detect the dramatic natural lighting on the players in the first two images. In the second two, I just moved to a position that was facing the sun, using the backboard to prevent the sun from impairing my vision so I could compose, effecting the silhouettes that you see. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

I really liked the contrast in the shot above and immediately below. I recently processed the second image below through high-dynamic range software for two reasons. One was to illustrate how HDR can pull out detail in dark shaded areas, which was the case on the bottom portion of the tree trunk as captured in the original frame (in the single-frame version, this portion was close to black).

He and I <i>had </i>to be the only people on foot outdoors in the park. </div><div><br /></div><div>I approached the pagoda from the south side and took my time, waiting to see if the man might leave anytime soon. Meanwhile, I preoccupied myself with composing other shots using other subject matter in the vicinity. </div><div><br />But after doing that, the man was still there.<br /><br />By this time, I was very close to the stairs on the pagoda's south side. So I decided to march up the stairs and assess the situation for shots in and around the pagoda, which is when I nabbed the first photo above. I didn’t know whether he was aware I was in his vicinity, but I got the impression at the time that he did not. So I went back down the steps that I had climbed moments earlier, and turned around to look toward him again when the sight below presented itself. He stood near the ironwork with his back to me, facing west, seemingly locked into deep thought. I framed the scene with my camera, focused and made it as quickly as possible. </div><div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgSg6GNHxKP7Emn8p5RSMlxXVOwNNKWs6x5qlnRzft8BnF3LufPWDjYRlwnHsUrv2-ZJyG_mRtCiumDsoYJxYYhiMJRcHU_a5R9BTPcCLC-iD951Yc68vfpeA-2EBs4VN7jV_a2pzVaNLOi4vgFZq-Bate7DWZ3hm2IZadcc0C7Z8rmqNwidXiVt668HWw" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="620" data-original-width="487" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgSg6GNHxKP7Emn8p5RSMlxXVOwNNKWs6x5qlnRzft8BnF3LufPWDjYRlwnHsUrv2-ZJyG_mRtCiumDsoYJxYYhiMJRcHU_a5R9BTPcCLC-iD951Yc68vfpeA-2EBs4VN7jV_a2pzVaNLOi4vgFZq-Bate7DWZ3hm2IZadcc0C7Z8rmqNwidXiVt668HWw=w315-h400" width="315" /></a></div><br />It wasn’t until weeks later than I got the idea to enhance the mood of this shot by treating it with selective color.

This scene looks out from the pagoda, the elevated platform helping me gain good detail and depth of the landscape, particularly that curving sidewalk. I always liked this view, but in the passing years, I wasn't pleased with the high-dynamic range (HDR) version I made of the original color at the time. Only in recent weeks did it occur to me to re-process it from scratch, taking a single RAW format frame (non-HDR) and present the original color as shown below. At the same time, I converted a copy to monochrome as shown above. I applied a slight crop at the bottom to both. I kind of like the monochrome version above better, but I feel that the color version adds an interesting dimension. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrD9NcS9iEWl-BUZKZHjDIr1Lv50sC5V75RBkpnS6ND9qcBbrbOuwEe39PvzYma3FS4Uy-epkbGSK6em5gL21_Ibwp4IcipsRO-nfeLHIIBtTCZuFT4SIbmr91_V4zqcqUW8Z-8hS9bzp3IMwEWCPMWBrPTb7OpOW1-z5YVz0EFlQdrsC-r6sXlyaU0-E/s5184/IMG_8738-2S.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3184" data-original-width="5184" height="246" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrD9NcS9iEWl-BUZKZHjDIr1Lv50sC5V75RBkpnS6ND9qcBbrbOuwEe39PvzYma3FS4Uy-epkbGSK6em5gL21_Ibwp4IcipsRO-nfeLHIIBtTCZuFT4SIbmr91_V4zqcqUW8Z-8hS9bzp3IMwEWCPMWBrPTb7OpOW1-z5YVz0EFlQdrsC-r6sXlyaU0-E/w400-h246/IMG_8738-2S.jpg" width="400" /></a> </div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div></div><div>My very first substantive winter shoot in the park occurred in the late morning of Jan. 8, 2005.

art” veneer. Surreal was the atmosphere I was feeling that morning while taking
many of my shots because how the snow stuck to everything. The first photo below, by the way, is not a black-and-white conversion. That's the original "color" version, but you see no color because of how thick, overcast skies and heavy snowfall worked to mute most color in the landscape. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjx1LvSu_y2t9B3moeyE0_Cmkf9viFA3Lk0ISPNBE_crO2hj-tDlsz1J53UC2L5jXstqxEXUPK9P6Moa5hFse-E9qViFrkTJvg3Anc8Fr4wRnfQCOlJun-58BXRwPulLc_QZrfhugesvyaG4juhSUN1y-ECqTlhmrNx6tY1fZWizvLydDeQHav7elqqTkY" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="601" data-original-width="903" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjx1LvSu_y2t9B3moeyE0_Cmkf9viFA3Lk0ISPNBE_crO2hj-tDlsz1J53UC2L5jXstqxEXUPK9P6Moa5hFse-E9qViFrkTJvg3Anc8Fr4wRnfQCOlJun-58BXRwPulLc_QZrfhugesvyaG4juhSUN1y-ECqTlhmrNx6tY1fZWizvLydDeQHav7elqqTkY=w400-h266" width="400" /></a></span></div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg-B9YHVx1aK7c6gNvFSSRGUrI852DnE13ZSNVhRzyzcpAjWM7ZEnRYxs2yiSX_uXmYl5lDPtJEVc8lJBmYfjB3Y3luwdhScTv8KGeAhME6TqENYobEFosxs3hBUASAJodjEfGsL8J0tN_vQXcOuecL7cc0IhJwN6McNISQgkXbQYTo-C5jn4sobvEsFDw" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="532" data-original-width="797" height="268" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg-B9YHVx1aK7c6gNvFSSRGUrI852DnE13ZSNVhRzyzcpAjWM7ZEnRYxs2yiSX_uXmYl5lDPtJEVc8lJBmYfjB3Y3luwdhScTv8KGeAhME6TqENYobEFosxs3hBUASAJodjEfGsL8J0tN_vQXcOuecL7cc0IhJwN6McNISQgkXbQYTo-C5jn4sobvEsFDw=w400-h268" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgO5DMg0b28T7p4UWYnXgZNV2YxOyTvYMn0PUqmLGOkDYRLqVikUWG3PGy9zvnFr1gMwYAbuHRbtl8KPRWbXUsCR922eXv4aInunrBIH9Dk4pjNCaypEx97DSn_i3XYOYTSyOlwrguSQLoA-11kna_XbVWajv1DjA4_40dRGI9TAbBu1S3tp_gNy87aa54" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="631" data-original-width="879" height="288" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgO5DMg0b28T7p4UWYnXgZNV2YxOyTvYMn0PUqmLGOkDYRLqVikUWG3PGy9zvnFr1gMwYAbuHRbtl8KPRWbXUsCR922eXv4aInunrBIH9Dk4pjNCaypEx97DSn_i3XYOYTSyOlwrguSQLoA-11kna_XbVWajv1DjA4_40dRGI9TAbBu1S3tp_gNy87aa54=w400-h288" width="400" /></a></div></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Applying a fine
art sheen also was on my mind when I processed the photo above, taken Feb. 6, 2010, a sunny day after the heavy snowfall day of Feb. 5. It’s an image I
liked because of how the lengths of the tree trunks appeared to have been given a splash of snow powder. I also
really liked the skewed, humpy shapes of the tree trunk on the far right. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I played
slightly with the color saturation controls to emphasize the image’s blue hues (it helped that I was using a polarizing filter on the camera lens during this shoot). And ... I used a post-processing "stretch" tool to slightly widen the sides of the above image to give it this horizontal orientation. I took the original vertical orientation of this shot and stretched its top and bottom ends ever so slightly to exaggerate its natural vertical orientation. It appears immediately below.

That same day, I took the photo above of the south playground swings. The green metal in the bars, a hint of blue in the trash receptacle (in the middle background) and a hint of brown in the leaves in the center are the only colors that really showed up in that photo. On Dec. 29, 2012, I returned to this same point in the park (see photo below) to shoot the same scene, after which I used high-dynamic range (HDR) software in post-processing to pull out more detail, including and especially color, which is why you see so many rusty-colored hues in the trees.

To my chagrin at the time, I really wasn't focused on the geometric pattern in the background until I got these images up on my computer afterward, at which time I found that I really appreciated the striped snow-on-black bench-backing pattern. And I also then wished I'd have thought to get the same picture, from the same angle </span></b>— <b><span style="font-family: arial;">but without the chocolates. There was another time, Dec. 12, 2010, when I came across the sight you see below on the table of a picnic bench. The lunchmeat was frozen to the wood. This was not staged. The second photo below, also not staged, is another time when I came upon food on an unattended park bench </span></b>— <b><span style="font-family: arial;">with no one in sight. It was taken Nov. 29, 2013, which technically is not winter ... but almost. Gauging by its contents, I'm presuming it was left intentionally for park critters. </span></b></div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0CYD7Kj07bcv5Avv1cX4iRtS492qdWYHMxb4Y4GMBh7GZu_CvBVdhJwySsR6xM4jSHQSGBm2RAaGQcmqbH0ZHgCCUIk7OhoHCv77LrGYMGYderMMITgOXziFfy4ZaGHbbDzU7P8-p2-FUWAutXTcrED58gulQkc0eJbrWFI8wOYL8DApeuTSc5AyTfeI/s1296/IMG_0427-2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="864" data-original-width="1296" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0CYD7Kj07bcv5Avv1cX4iRtS492qdWYHMxb4Y4GMBh7GZu_CvBVdhJwySsR6xM4jSHQSGBm2RAaGQcmqbH0ZHgCCUIk7OhoHCv77LrGYMGYderMMITgOXziFfy4ZaGHbbDzU7P8-p2-FUWAutXTcrED58gulQkc0eJbrWFI8wOYL8DApeuTSc5AyTfeI/w400-h266/IMG_0427-2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLxMNAsrKBDjeyyVgyD-xmqKf7bFXR3_NX-O8pqkb4GTSdoJ2YgrNKIOzEOFAqeI5_MFW7zOnv5Ru4PmfUGY79Eq1VKKatwHESQ9Xnab2OmYhB-NA_F2LV4luKgxSxhPnbu2Fyv6ppo6uwbSXhrvHjmFmI6M4X4MEz8CNKkdHBn8AQFnJvZLj-Uy_E9Yc/s904/IMG_0558.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="596" data-original-width="904" height="264" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLxMNAsrKBDjeyyVgyD-xmqKf7bFXR3_NX-O8pqkb4GTSdoJ2YgrNKIOzEOFAqeI5_MFW7zOnv5Ru4PmfUGY79Eq1VKKatwHESQ9Xnab2OmYhB-NA_F2LV4luKgxSxhPnbu2Fyv6ppo6uwbSXhrvHjmFmI6M4X4MEz8CNKkdHBn8AQFnJvZLj-Uy_E9Yc/w400-h264/IMG_0558.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_a2UfvNNHxz99Ff2UeI_XnKWw934vDRQBsl1DGzByMb4YjnnSIBIGSf-0LHRfjU50XXjOuI-lRVt3KMsa4Yye2nnOoe6utImki02A09YBfXOW3bvW1Y8kZV8Hh817xg4uDrBFyYK26-4vM9zCSoGZlh_sWLzN9V9x5ZTMteF-AbCnuld0Xc_q5pjpYxA/s3504/12-16-07-Winter%20shoot%20at%20Garfield%20Park,%20neighborhood%20041-2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3504" data-original-width="2336" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_a2UfvNNHxz99Ff2UeI_XnKWw934vDRQBsl1DGzByMb4YjnnSIBIGSf-0LHRfjU50XXjOuI-lRVt3KMsa4Yye2nnOoe6utImki02A09YBfXOW3bvW1Y8kZV8Hh817xg4uDrBFyYK26-4vM9zCSoGZlh_sWLzN9V9x5ZTMteF-AbCnuld0Xc_q5pjpYxA/w266-h400/12-16-07-Winter%20shoot%20at%20Garfield%20Park,%20neighborhood%20041-2.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><b><span style="font-family: arial;">Above and below: If the food shots above can be considered unusual, then perhaps these two images belong in that same category.

Apparently, taking food to the park and enjoying it at a picnic table is not limited to summer, spring and fall. I came across this group (below) and took a picture with my iPhone on March 8, 2015, and it appeared as if the woman on the left was grilling. I never encountered any other similar situation in the park in winter in all my years in Indianapolis. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><span

Garfield Park, a high percentage of then think foremost about the park’s refreshing summer attraction: the aquatics center adjacent to the Burrello Family Center.<div><br />For many years, the park had an Olympic-sized pool situated approximately where the parking lot of the Garfield Park Arts Center is today. The new and current aquatic center was built along Pagoda Drive northwest of the previous location and opened in 1996. </div><div><br /></div><div>In addition to recreational swimming, the park’s pools for many years have been used to teach swimming lessons and to avail youths to join the park swim club, enabling swimmers to practice and improve strokes and participate in competitions. That continues to happen in the new pools. </div><div><br /></div><div>The first three photos of the aquatic center pools below were taken in 2004 and 2006. The four below those are from June 19, 2010. </div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgffgT95-mz00qKrAj3FxTzpJ2B5xssGoJzRkTDfgVI90zha_jEck6w9Akv0rYyHCURQygdxVH328heDq6SKcPlT6Tgo0mBWBMn6vsZAsg9BhNN1lUnjWpyABydg6BQkrUAGFNj7RePtyQ3FiV8lk5rCHz-fVqi2F8UJxJTpnPd0ze12Arl4IBWhUcKHe4/s2836/06-28-06%20-%20Garfield%20Park,%20Garfield%20Drive%20neighborhood%20gardens%20126-3.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em;

Performances had been held on residential home properties on the fringe of the Fountain Square merchants district. (Ironically, I was in Fountain Square the same day as the 2012 festival, but I was photographing the one-time <b><a href="https://joekonz.smugmug.com/Sports/Cycling/Fountain-Square-Grand-Prix" target="_blank">Fountain Square Grand Prix </a></b>cycling competitions.) </div><div><br /></div><div>So Gardner hunted for an alternative locale for Cataracts 2013, which turned out to be Garfield Park. He charged admission ($10 a person) for the first time to help defray expenses. Some 40 acts of psych rock, garage rock, hip-hop and punk performed on Aug. 24. I walked through the park late in the day and remember hearing the bands, but I was far enough away that I couldn't see anything past the security rope-off points. </div><div><br /></div><div>I did stroll through the park again two days later and photographed these festival remnants (above and first three photos below) that were still there. I have no idea what any of them are and/or mean. But any ground debris left behind by festival-goers had been cleaned up nicely by then. </div><div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjF1gh1sJ0r5GaAmZBEL4F8O-0rQBMiCzBoyshh89PyFqb_xt23JC1FItfWsULPe9eN-ahkr3TI3JKK4ItHkeWNSbkpBMXjXacnj1_FB5PuPyjcYY84waGSwK8w46PIDQLOKexzTIp-NM5SRNqhx7UlL_rLLfgs0qteITaM32xT7kHt9VMLoOb4Cdgud-s/s1142/photo%20(2).JPG" style="margin-left: 1em;

Afterward, I remembered that I'd seen a lot of people feeding squirrels in this area of the park and that these squirrels have gotten accustomed to easy handouts from creatures who look like me. Unfortunately, I had no food with me, so this one went without. </span></b><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">In mid-March of 2007, after months of studying about macro photography, I bought myself an 85mm f/2.8 macro lens. A macro lens is a photography "tool" that enables one to see small and minute things closeup — and sharp — albeit sometimes at the risk of being unable to make out other things in the image because of blurriness, especially when using that wide-open f/2.8 aperture.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I spent a day roaming the park and Conservatory with the macro lens on the camera, seeing what kind of pictures it could get me. To end this chapter, I present a few of the results below. Some of these might seem a little ridiculous, such as the burrs or the interlocking fence post and nail ... but to a photographer exploring that new lens, it was an eye-opener. As for the very last photo below ... I did not stage that. That's exactly how I came across that scene.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a

this post might attest, autumn was an exciting time of year for me to be in the park taking pictures. <div><br /></div><div>For many of my working years, I took half of my annual four weeks' vacation in autumn — partly to look in on the Major League Baseball World Series (I worked nights many of those years). But also because of how much I enjoyed taking long walks through Garfield Park and beyond, along Pleasant Run Parkway and even to downtown Indianapolis and back, primarily to soak in the splendor of autumn colors.<div><div><br /></div><div>The first image below, which I took Nov. 1, 2016, came the closest to accomplishing my ideal target capture in autumn photo pursuits: a wide perspective shot depicting the breadth of space and colors, both on trees and on the ground, but also including at least one person in the image to give it perspective… and a personal touch. The fact that the individual was walking two dogs and wearing a bright color (blue) that helped stand her off in contrast from the autumn colors was icing on the cake. Again, at least for me. </div><div><br /></div><div>I first saw the individual walking about 8 seconds before taking the shot, so I used the interim time to compose and frame everything and to wait for her and the lead dog to get past the lamppost before tripping the shutter. </div><div><br /></div><div>During the same shoot, I lucked out with another favorite, the shot of the arts center stairs and adjacent lawn doused in season-colored leaves (second photo below).

So technically, this scene can never be rephotographed exactly as I got it.</div><div><br /></div><div>The tree in the second image below is the one I'm using in the "Garfield Park in Pictures" logo on the top of every chapter in this series. This grand maple is special for me, too, because I managed to get this in one of its last fully healthy years. In the years since, it has been slowly dying. Its leaves and colors are no longer as full and resplendent. </div><div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8FKMTITUJPtQAqm4ltI9S_zarQMafjli4o2vrkrcXgmeSzWlPnHlGpUANdpKPXrWZHm-1GIur-CmIMNFCnXJWMccouQ2HFW6TgfKCOYdrwu0qrdcR8XzlUo4A-71MA0IeiisHy38QwKYUUCccYPhrIO6Gzmm9FPc7zvjqcrx_542CSBEsR7nZkKVkBVo/s3072/10-20-06-Autumn%20in%20Garfield%20Park%20018%20(2).jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="3072" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8FKMTITUJPtQAqm4ltI9S_zarQMafjli4o2vrkrcXgmeSzWlPnHlGpUANdpKPXrWZHm-1GIur-CmIMNFCnXJWMccouQ2HFW6TgfKCOYdrwu0qrdcR8XzlUo4A-71MA0IeiisHy38QwKYUUCccYPhrIO6Gzmm9FPc7zvjqcrx_542CSBEsR7nZkKVkBVo/w400-h266/10-20-06-Autumn%20in%20Garfield%20Park%20018%20(2).jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmDrkg3HvLss6ijr7IaPkUA4vg-8u75TQk4skOg0PpkFpmioWqvP31iuYti2nXaxSCt_WuUK4xU2c7WKM54LsK8qZSmrZN7cND9tti7-0jnJCAjIqnzh7s3nuiA7bb8ea6lQe2Qvwq2ITvk9pDg6ghzdyZgVUp6NMwuvHbH1MZS6tgKgwpyOGhK9B8jIE/s2639/10-17-04-Autumn%20in%20Garfield%20Park%20031.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2032" data-original-width="2639" height="308" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmDrkg3HvLss6ijr7IaPkUA4vg-8u75TQk4skOg0PpkFpmioWqvP31iuYti2nXaxSCt_WuUK4xU2c7WKM54LsK8qZSmrZN7cND9tti7-0jnJCAjIqnzh7s3nuiA7bb8ea6lQe2Qvwq2ITvk9pDg6ghzdyZgVUp6NMwuvHbH1MZS6tgKgwpyOGhK9B8jIE/w400-h308/10-17-04-Autumn%20in%20Garfield%20Park%20031.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0hfismOYadZrX5ULMEyAm2QqBJ16bte0Y5W4XgYa2Uiq4ta34khneMG3M0j3rFEdlw7pa-E4a0ptHh3aRFef_PlLi7hIOev_k16yQHLhvhlmRMbmyz6AD_-cAW9tLuZJZH5x3qgQGKo9bqr3WUD7TPFWKEOyyHmLqdAcHOt0Jb-0TcHW8aQ2XxcIscCY/s1026/IMG_0078_79_80_fused_tonemapped%20(1).jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="684" data-original-width="1026" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0hfismOYadZrX5ULMEyAm2QqBJ16bte0Y5W4XgYa2Uiq4ta34khneMG3M0j3rFEdlw7pa-E4a0ptHh3aRFef_PlLi7hIOev_k16yQHLhvhlmRMbmyz6AD_-cAW9tLuZJZH5x3qgQGKo9bqr3WUD7TPFWKEOyyHmLqdAcHOt0Jb-0TcHW8aQ2XxcIscCY/w400-h266/IMG_0078_79_80_fused_tonemapped%20(1).jpg" width="400" /></a></div>In my early autumn shoots in Garfield Park, I found that the prime time for colors was in mid-October. But later on, I discovered I could wait until early November (such as the two photos at the top of this chapter) and still get decent autumn colors. The bright red-leaf tree in the photo above was showing this brilliance on Nov. 7, 2013. I really like the dark, gnarly trunk and trunk extension of the tree in the left foreground, too.</div><div><br /></div><div>The first image below, taken from the east ridge overlooking Conservatory Drive and looking northwest, was another from the October 2014 outing. </div><div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjomIDr4VPhkxDADf1l7Tv17GxZ6xs5UOu6B5uJ4jJWCI6-SO-4P69ixlST67oBfPLlX8gnrYpSW0JO5B1t4ZyOjdJ2Yv6UFURNDB_0f478Vf6ETbvshN5h9GlhkNg9esMQOpoJXnwDcmgFo880kVPWl12jS34EGSsaf9Rv-ZP4Nxs_0wZq515iPJQvgT4/s3072/Autumn%20in%20Garfield%20Park%20054-2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="3072" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjomIDr4VPhkxDADf1l7Tv17GxZ6xs5UOu6B5uJ4jJWCI6-SO-4P69ixlST67oBfPLlX8gnrYpSW0JO5B1t4ZyOjdJ2Yv6UFURNDB_0f478Vf6ETbvshN5h9GlhkNg9esMQOpoJXnwDcmgFo880kVPWl12jS34EGSsaf9Rv-ZP4Nxs_0wZq515iPJQvgT4/w400-h266/Autumn%20in%20Garfield%20Park%20054-2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZrvT8R_4rBCfNC-oNqLwyz7fWKcm4HZ8Y9jD3ybja2SHGPV5AYqeEbrH066H-hTQGoTH17oT2pTMs8yfFSRJk9yX9fsH0LrS2uZoV5E7ePJYOuzmyAsbSLlZ_hb8-XPGHmVzhViaX7GV9ahcye4sCcmm21ZAVco6RMdKekHx99RGK9PJD_1XPGsazfBY/s399/IMG_3664-2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="266" data-original-width="399" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZrvT8R_4rBCfNC-oNqLwyz7fWKcm4HZ8Y9jD3ybja2SHGPV5AYqeEbrH066H-hTQGoTH17oT2pTMs8yfFSRJk9yX9fsH0LrS2uZoV5E7ePJYOuzmyAsbSLlZ_hb8-XPGHmVzhViaX7GV9ahcye4sCcmm21ZAVco6RMdKekHx99RGK9PJD_1XPGsazfBY/w400-h266/IMG_3664-2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><b><span style="font-family: arial;">Above and below: These shots, both at the north end of the park, along Raymond Street, were taken on Oct. 21, 2010.

text-align: center;"><br /></div>About the photos above and the first three below ... This is another grouping from that October 2004 shoot. The one above is significant to me for two reasons. One, there is a runner on Conservatory Drive, just right of and slightly above center. If you look closely, you can see her in a white top and black pants. She is a small speck in the photo, but she is there. Two, the modest brush you see along Bean Creek in the foreground is quite low here. Remember, this was in 2004. Today, the view you see here beyond the creek while standing at the same place I was standing when I took this photo is impossible because the brush is enormously tall. All you would see today is, well, enormously tall brush.</div><div><br /></div><div>The first photo below is a shot I wanted from the get-go: Autumn colors dressing up the pedestrian roundabout near the former site of the Monument to Confederate Civil War prisoners at the south end of the park. The tree in the second photo below can be found along the path behind the Burrello Family Center not far from the stone pedestrian bridge over Bean Creek along Conservatory Drive. </div><div><br /></div><div>The third photo below was taken near the lawn stairs leading from the arts center parking lot up the hill to the south end of the arts center. I liked how the leaf colors, green lawn and dark shaded branch on the right complement the amphitheater in the distance. Plus, leaves on the dark-shaded branch are framing the structure. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggz_HiFhiscdv8sJQ0JzHRj3pjFw-eslglwFWxhE2saL5f8C5UrTxCuNSidgh1y5Uxm9V9iF4DGR9Nci1kyfZzjZk1byyEyb_XiJaz8VA2GnQMp4VI0esGbpbcyc9O2PQA4CjyIH8uFNwo9QIFRBN4_qXsMOK4MZOLwwlc1t2LU_7gYcBPNCTEuhqmmvc/s3062/10-20-06-Autumn%20in%20Garfield%20Park%20022%20(1)-S2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1720" data-original-width="3062" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggz_HiFhiscdv8sJQ0JzHRj3pjFw-eslglwFWxhE2saL5f8C5UrTxCuNSidgh1y5Uxm9V9iF4DGR9Nci1kyfZzjZk1byyEyb_XiJaz8VA2GnQMp4VI0esGbpbcyc9O2PQA4CjyIH8uFNwo9QIFRBN4_qXsMOK4MZOLwwlc1t2LU_7gYcBPNCTEuhqmmvc/w400-h225/10-20-06-Autumn%20in%20Garfield%20Park%20022%20(1)-S2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCsVVnWlsaxrWWrSamYq-x3dei8lrZAUUNHOuTCgvmpoZVfC4BdjoSVH_oxqtFtYBrFYMvI6-P-SwgEvXtllrTcmQ9xDWwGeOLFIPPQ_Txpb5DE5xYNEBKERxRbzYbnQCURxrYDnIjFI_6ZBUWZ_Eg2eHiF4HeWI9c9UGljydReVzJ0XrJI8GaSJ9v7wQ/s3072/Autumn%20in%20Garfield%20Park%20024-2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3072" data-original-width="2048" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCsVVnWlsaxrWWrSamYq-x3dei8lrZAUUNHOuTCgvmpoZVfC4BdjoSVH_oxqtFtYBrFYMvI6-P-SwgEvXtllrTcmQ9xDWwGeOLFIPPQ_Txpb5DE5xYNEBKERxRbzYbnQCURxrYDnIjFI_6ZBUWZ_Eg2eHiF4HeWI9c9UGljydReVzJ0XrJI8GaSJ9v7wQ/w266-h400/Autumn%20in%20Garfield%20Park%20024-2.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3yZaf7necxE1tm4vomUfu46NZ0rAHmigFJ91TEhcMu0FhCL7gss56Kc4tKXRM-TjREUnrVz2JHaVjiSdDPEkIxoQpQVxtPIUV8_gAc0MbesJnCx_dOJtPJyPhD068lFrOiDkAt58z2CkSezYsGdIGYScQ69E5_TLui8hvOHaCJFVqAL2HYRq_1k8fTMU/s3072/Autumn%20in%20Garfield%20Park%20036-3.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="3072" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3yZaf7necxE1tm4vomUfu46NZ0rAHmigFJ91TEhcMu0FhCL7gss56Kc4tKXRM-TjREUnrVz2JHaVjiSdDPEkIxoQpQVxtPIUV8_gAc0MbesJnCx_dOJtPJyPhD068lFrOiDkAt58z2CkSezYsGdIGYScQ69E5_TLui8hvOHaCJFVqAL2HYRq_1k8fTMU/w400-h266/Autumn%20in%20Garfield%20Park%20036-3.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOv-UsWQ-gTeyLcmT7_AcY3aKtzKkEbuFJNke-tUuYktenX7VASOPKfaZDYCndz7ucmU3euVKTyqFXlZv-CiVUJkQymnp8eSrOPB-azwguBBc1GXHureGhAPl99J9Sus0D4iKmfljNdBBpe4zozqRj6EY8rbdGuEXkuXOQYwv0Xn86BbvwTb-Jzf3Wgyo/s4103/IMG_0045_6_7_fused_tonemapped-2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2736" data-original-width="4103" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOv-UsWQ-gTeyLcmT7_AcY3aKtzKkEbuFJNke-tUuYktenX7VASOPKfaZDYCndz7ucmU3euVKTyqFXlZv-CiVUJkQymnp8eSrOPB-azwguBBc1GXHureGhAPl99J9Sus0D4iKmfljNdBBpe4zozqRj6EY8rbdGuEXkuXOQYwv0Xn86BbvwTb-Jzf3Wgyo/w400-h266/IMG_0045_6_7_fused_tonemapped-2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><b><span style="font-family: arial;">Above is the arts center parking lot, where the park’s original Olympic-size pool used to be.

I was particularly taken by the bizarre artwork that nature created in the second photo below with the arc of leaves and a short, slender branch in the foreground. </div><div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhg-09bdZCLPUkMzGQe4FJ4bRERk8S-ELPvSD0AyrKXxd-3BAHBR_VG27PesaBwqg8L2jwfzAcY6vLFaFB4CuL522LK6DMwIPkwpe9JqkOOfM5eN3oXLY1mt0KCaKplUeA2V64AEGrMjmpYcWccAb6cuU-fxMZpbLcizPrxP_VL1Q4ZYL1tV1y9Pkoh6w/s1004/IMG_7822-3.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="668" data-original-width="1004" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhg-09bdZCLPUkMzGQe4FJ4bRERk8S-ELPvSD0AyrKXxd-3BAHBR_VG27PesaBwqg8L2jwfzAcY6vLFaFB4CuL522LK6DMwIPkwpe9JqkOOfM5eN3oXLY1mt0KCaKplUeA2V64AEGrMjmpYcWccAb6cuU-fxMZpbLcizPrxP_VL1Q4ZYL1tV1y9Pkoh6w/w400-h266/IMG_7822-3.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPSr2RT4ivlyO8x2w-vWGVCxkm3dKuJm7jRN2QpqoUeofy-m1QtsZ9Gehw-eHaKXspYw9TltxoNzchr7LWHiPxKNTJk5hEdTokRNE3fYmoNDaaKPafqbSxeQp4S51ayci4MBfy1XCXmrUf1qsQUlgLsXnCtFLB3vBtaDV8ac74UH_p7Uvkh2JU3j0MTp0/s1006/IMG_7827.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="671" data-original-width="1006" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPSr2RT4ivlyO8x2w-vWGVCxkm3dKuJm7jRN2QpqoUeofy-m1QtsZ9Gehw-eHaKXspYw9TltxoNzchr7LWHiPxKNTJk5hEdTokRNE3fYmoNDaaKPafqbSxeQp4S51ayci4MBfy1XCXmrUf1qsQUlgLsXnCtFLB3vBtaDV8ac74UH_p7Uvkh2JU3j0MTp0/w400-h266/IMG_7827.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6tkbOiof8ujbDpBuXHXj37au36zOyMd1gnRfUZyAt1GoEZYvPI_nFLi81JRcl-IbgNnYNuthdF0_RX5BRIUAhKYsIWh8y8dM1Ig-FgHDOlw1b_o4qL0J-95Jpa2ZvNoo6H3mKWVtT8NUzuaDN1cwmMosrHJK-igum7QOU_pzW_y_XeoE8BJoYEevFYKY/s4101/IMG_4311_2_3_tonemapped-2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2734" data-original-width="4101" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6tkbOiof8ujbDpBuXHXj37au36zOyMd1gnRfUZyAt1GoEZYvPI_nFLi81JRcl-IbgNnYNuthdF0_RX5BRIUAhKYsIWh8y8dM1Ig-FgHDOlw1b_o4qL0J-95Jpa2ZvNoo6H3mKWVtT8NUzuaDN1cwmMosrHJK-igum7QOU_pzW_y_XeoE8BJoYEevFYKY/w400-h266/IMG_4311_2_3_tonemapped-2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>Above and below, from Oct. 15, 2014: Occasionally I liked to shoot in the park on overcast days, to see how colors might be affected by the diffused natural light. I couldn't believe the rich color I got in the trees on the shot above, one of those heavily overcast days. I even tried lowering the saturation in post-processing, but it had an adverse effect, in my opinion. So I dialed it down a tad. This view looks north from the pedestrian roundabout at the park's south end. </div><div><br /></div><div>The tree in the image below stands just outside and east of the amphitheater, close to the asphalt pedestrian path, and the view looks northeast. I was intrigued by the way the sundry dark branches manage to hold their own (in prominence in the composition) against the leaves' spectacular orange color. On another occasion, I photographed this same tree but from a different vantage point and with its leaves largely stripped (second photo below). </div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJlqinmCbuovZyeDxejbtuWbdeXZ9HiHdQ3GznRi50qJ-621T2RUSfMMxNOZJoF-PTOQDHU-FXn2I3sLXnRo-wPQJNhyphenhyphen4161waneN7J7YWGOHLBVbcNwPSusU4VzlvB81kqW04acJ0yu67gVk_5TPx7EvOK86xx1K8CRbpwtwo0PlHtnOyxfo-iELVYxU/s4100/IMG_4320_1_2_tonemapped.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2732" data-original-width="4100" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJlqinmCbuovZyeDxejbtuWbdeXZ9HiHdQ3GznRi50qJ-621T2RUSfMMxNOZJoF-PTOQDHU-FXn2I3sLXnRo-wPQJNhyphenhyphen4161waneN7J7YWGOHLBVbcNwPSusU4VzlvB81kqW04acJ0yu67gVk_5TPx7EvOK86xx1K8CRbpwtwo0PlHtnOyxfo-iELVYxU/w400-h266/IMG_4320_1_2_tonemapped.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbsKKu8WDiJEvGgMCSf79DxRxF7-4x1Sow3AhV26uYljSlnmBzsnSPzJ41CCw_Li92bH6E-BGLjtgIRbxTzfqNJnOptcc2wn6X4fAQe0uS62_u-4dTSxNV_LAOOH81HhG5ERSe4OtYgBl08NwAPqecYGQcn5205kuRaO0LgLM-2hTtNAjayCeFpwCD17o/s4091/IMG_7830_1_2_tonemapped.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2716" data-original-width="4091" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbsKKu8WDiJEvGgMCSf79DxRxF7-4x1Sow3AhV26uYljSlnmBzsnSPzJ41CCw_Li92bH6E-BGLjtgIRbxTzfqNJnOptcc2wn6X4fAQe0uS62_u-4dTSxNV_LAOOH81HhG5ERSe4OtYgBl08NwAPqecYGQcn5205kuRaO0LgLM-2hTtNAjayCeFpwCD17o/w400-h265/IMG_7830_1_2_tonemapped.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_BD9Q28MPkRW-4pLz3Bt5szzuOLDFG3VB_bejptG7L_PBR99jnFXRGXi2spSrB6ofgwiM1KnCFgMSeCzte2j-OBKTwv_hsSwcrcMfMXLjQRit21uKW2oWItUUOBJt19oKD06b11mZs6W4uAl4mjCNoAiVKmQgkm0pbsED_hpwZef-JKw-hJ4VmZsxrGs/s4068/IMG_8091_2_3_tonemapped.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2691" data-original-width="4068" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_BD9Q28MPkRW-4pLz3Bt5szzuOLDFG3VB_bejptG7L_PBR99jnFXRGXi2spSrB6ofgwiM1KnCFgMSeCzte2j-OBKTwv_hsSwcrcMfMXLjQRit21uKW2oWItUUOBJt19oKD06b11mZs6W4uAl4mjCNoAiVKmQgkm0pbsED_hpwZef-JKw-hJ4VmZsxrGs/w400-h265/IMG_8091_2_3_tonemapped.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikH5laQwFUovHBOJm3IVRr-YH01i238FAEm50mOuLMXcGCsi2U5EMvsSEmfq9wU9BqGIIXXRdjwjke7lHGwbFg31oC9IbR-lVZN5tY38lkzbgn6CL_9MCBZ6iLd3rLV82IVI_uIuVN7UsHeCFVNe7yKFwQpf8RASnodzMmWmCK3FJ6E9OgX388xyc4DYo/s3072/Autumn%20in%20Garfield%20Park%20071-2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="3072" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikH5laQwFUovHBOJm3IVRr-YH01i238FAEm50mOuLMXcGCsi2U5EMvsSEmfq9wU9BqGIIXXRdjwjke7lHGwbFg31oC9IbR-lVZN5tY38lkzbgn6CL_9MCBZ6iLd3rLV82IVI_uIuVN7UsHeCFVNe7yKFwQpf8RASnodzMmWmCK3FJ6E9OgX388xyc4DYo/w400-h266/Autumn%20in%20Garfield%20Park%20071-2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><b><span style="font-family: arial;">Above: A shaded lawn of fallen leaves from the October 2004 shoot.

I got excited about them more when I was very young than I do now. </div><div><br /></div><div>Still, after taking up photography seriously, I’d always wanted to take at least one stab at doing justice in pictures to a fireworks show. <br /><br />Photos in the top half of this chapter were taken Sept. 15, 2010, after the Mexican Independence Bicentennial and Revolution Centennial celebration at the MacAllister Amphitheater in Garfield Park. I used my primary digital single-lens reflex camera (which then was a Canon 7D) on a tripod, enabling me to control key settings such as shutter speed and aperture. <div><br /></div><div>Photos in the bottom half (from 2013) were taken three years later and were associated with the “America, We Remember” observance on Labor Day weekend. These pictures were taken with an iPhone from the Garfield Park-South neighborhood south of Southern Avenue, looking north toward downtown. <p></p></div><div><br /></div><div>Please note that you can click on any photo to see a larger and sharper version.</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">2010</span></b></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">For 75 years before that, going back to Dec. 3, 1915, the station had been located outside park boundaries at 2302 Shelby Street, slightly more than a half-mile east of the new location, 602 E.

But the outside -- the structures on the premises -- are important, too.<div><br /></div><div>The original conservatory in Garfield Park was designed and built in 1916 by German landscape architect George Kessler. By the mid-1950s, its condition had deteriorated, so the current structure, designed by the architectural firm Burns and Burns, was built along with the first all-welded greenhouse in the country. The greenhouse has provided plants to all the city parks and parkways. </div><div><div><br /></div>Inside, in the atrium, is where the conservatory hosts its sundry plant, flower and other horticultural programs, shows and displays. This includes, or has included, an annual Spring Bulb Show, an annual Orchid Show, a fall Chrysanthemum Show and the yuletide Conservatory Crossing/Candlelight Crossing, just to name a few of the most popular. </div><div><br /></div><div>I attended and photographed several of the Spring Bulb shows and one each of the orchid and chrysanthemum shows in the first decade of the new millennium. In fact, some of my favorite florals in my portfolio were made at those bulb and orchid shows, including the shot below of the gorgeous tulips from the Spring Bulbs show in 2007. These far and away have remained my favorite tulip; my problem is that I cannot seem to find these exact bulbs anywhere to plant on my own property. </div><div><br /></div><div>Please note that you can click on any photo to see a larger and sharper version.<br /><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMsVdm1T8g92spUXhSishF9yo-hSYlH6C-JuOwlLviAlQ9dGY73zDO3o5L5WBmBlPZqLeSMbNU_Y9e3XUveKSQ9Nn6B-jef5-TIS5Xj-YxM_HV2i0qF7chlXjS4SF-reY6bXoQv6s4AsG3i7FOgvkuxadhBnKR6REtljIZVLKTgOjb_IXFw7g98_kxXaQ/s3504/04-02-07-Conservatory%20tulip%20show,%20sunken%20garden,%20red%20bud%20025-3.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2336" data-original-width="3504" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMsVdm1T8g92spUXhSishF9yo-hSYlH6C-JuOwlLviAlQ9dGY73zDO3o5L5WBmBlPZqLeSMbNU_Y9e3XUveKSQ9Nn6B-jef5-TIS5Xj-YxM_HV2i0qF7chlXjS4SF-reY6bXoQv6s4AsG3i7FOgvkuxadhBnKR6REtljIZVLKTgOjb_IXFw7g98_kxXaQ/w400-h266/04-02-07-Conservatory%20tulip%20show,%20sunken%20garden,%20red%20bud%20025-3.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div>Deeper into the conservatory, past the atrium, is where visitors can view tropical plants and trees found in the world’s rain forests ... and <i>feel </i>the warm and humid climates in which these plants and trees thrive. Images of some of those plants and trees will be part of tomorrow’s Chapter 9 of the series.<br /><div><br /></div><div>But I begin this section with a couple shots of the conservatory’s exterior, a striking limestone edifice, whose use of windows seem to invite visitors to indulge their curiosity about what’s inside.

I happened to visit that year with other members of a local photography club I belonged to at the time. </div><div><br /></div><div>Conservatory Crossing decorations began in the atrium, which is immediately beyond the main entrance facing Conservatory Drive. This is where the poinsettias, model trains and mini-village are located. The attraction extends into the adjacent tropical plants and rainforest greenhouse, where lighting dims considerably, giving those seasonal lights a more striking allure.</div><div><br /></div><div>Most of my favorite Conservatory Crossing pictures were from that first visit, which also happened to be the night the Conservatory observed its annual Candlelight Crossing — a one-night observance that the Conservatory uses to launch extended nighttime hours a week or so before Christmas. </div><div><br /></div><div>Candlelight Crossing treats visitors with sundry yuletide treats and beverages. But the real treat is being able to view the decorations at night, when all the lights — in the atrium and the tropical plant section — present an enhanced atmosphere and experience.

It is named in honor of longtime park manager and IndyParks employee Lynda Burrello, who today serves as president of Friends of Garfield Park Board of Directors.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The family center contains a full gymnasium for various youth and adults sports leagues, open gym for basketball and pickleball, and rooms for yoga, other exercises and weightlifting, meetings, ballroom and swing dance lessons, weekly meditation sessions and fitness classes. The facility also hosts movie nights, family game nights, summer youth camps and a multitude of other activities.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The pools in the new aquatics center replaced an Olympic-sized pool, built in 1930, that had been located just outside the main (east) entrance to what it is today the Garfield Park Arts Center. The park continues to avail its pool for summer swim lessons and swim team competitions. (You don’t see any photos of the new pools in this post because pool photos will be presented in a later chapter.)</div><p class="MsoNormal"><span face="Arial, sans-serif">Pictured immediately below is a high-dynamic range (HDR) portrait of the center and its parking lot taken

The likeness was created by sculptor Chie Kramer and woodcarver Dennis Maddox. They created the statue from a single piece of sycamore wood weighing an estimated 2,000 pounds.<p class="MsoNormal"><span face="Arial, sans-serif">I’d noticed (and photographed) the sculpture, containing obvious deterioration issues, as early as 2006. The statue remained in front of the center on its pedestal until sometime in 2009. That year, I noticed it missing on many pass-bys weeks apart (I used to go past the center on my tri-weekly runs through the park). </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span face="Arial, sans-serif">Curious about the long absence, I inquired about its whereabouts. </span>I called Indy Parks and talked to its spokeswoman at the time, and she said the sculpture had been moved indoors for restoration and to protect it from the elements from further damage. The wording in her description gave me reason to believe the artwork would be restored and returned. </p><p class="MsoNormal"><span face="Arial, sans-serif">But as all of us who visited the park on a regular basis know today, the James Garfield sculpture never came back</span>. </p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal"><v:shape alt="A small building covered in snow

It was available for sale for $1.58 at the website HipPostcard. <div><br /></div><div>It's not clear which of the Bean Creek bridges it was supposed to be representing (there are two vehicular stone bridges and one pedestrian stone bridge over Bean Creek in the park, and there once was an additional foot bridge that has since been replaced with a non-stone structure). <div><br /></div><div>The new foot bridge connects sections of the park near MacAllister Amphitheater on the west with the Sunken Garden and Conservatory on the east, segments that are separated by the creek. For many of the early years I lived in the neighborhood, there was no bridge there. It had long been removed, I presume for safety reasons. <br /><br />So it was with great joy in spring 2009 when the park announced it had opened this new foot bridge in its place at a cost of $120,000. This new bridge is shown below in photographs taken in December 2012, three years after it went into use. No longer is it a inconvenience for pedestrians to get back and forth from those important park landmarks.<div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYveZZ3mhj2u7Jsg16sVS6JR1D7kdoTHzQt7-36l0D73El0Cm3gOlrYwRWR2KbezEPYV43D5TuLOpl1yjoOFcLpT9Mupo_KGvLj8LS0WvKetjFjcSonsu0Yvzw4RLOAmatY-cN6mvL2DYNWOZKuWbI9fYJJcpSgHGqsLhRPvwACPV9DL7HDzzcQbD2q1E/s5200/IMG_0385_6_7_fused_tonemapped.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em;

It eventually crosses under Madison Avenue and continues westward before converging with White River behind the private Lilly Recreation Park between Harding and West streets. <div><br /></div><div>Both streams have their origin on the Eastside of Indianapolis. For Pleasant Run, that location is just north of 13th Street near East Pleasant Run Parkway, South Drive. <br /><br />Meanwhile, Bean Creek begins as Mich Run north of Raymond Street between Sherman Drive and Emerson Avenue. It goes southwest and is Bean Creek by the time it reaches Raymond Street east of Sherman Drive. After passing through the north section of Sarah Shank Golf Course, it continues snaking west before entering Garfield Park at Southern Avenue west of Shelby Street. <br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMmJ_aRczP1kRn-sPLh_9hkSNFGeCkxwy72VbFl-Qj1C4IKmOTJjyLEtbejD4ie_odhCQWqZ71TGvoXSOahZdYh1lJkzuzzSwDiQ9YLQxNCRcRR6EQAI1UaQJdBiCxb1BCD3OGKu_CjHQyxMJAdfqE7bgwaCrQyVSGNFzmLuEuqycb2yMbw5_knXJcAEg/s5472/IMG_0501-2.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMmJ_aRczP1kRn-sPLh_9hkSNFGeCkxwy72VbFl-Qj1C4IKmOTJjyLEtbejD4ie_odhCQWqZ71TGvoXSOahZdYh1lJkzuzzSwDiQ9YLQxNCRcRR6EQAI1UaQJdBiCxb1BCD3OGKu_CjHQyxMJAdfqE7bgwaCrQyVSGNFzmLuEuqycb2yMbw5_knXJcAEg/s320/IMG_0501-2.jpg" /></a></div><div>At right is a section of Bean Creek, as seen from the new pedestrian bridge near the amphitheater on Nov. 29, 2013. </div><div><br /></div><div>The first two photos below represent spring perspective (first) and closeup (second) shots of a swollen Bean Creek just southwest of Garfield Park's green iron pedestrian bridge (in the background) near the asphalt basketball court.
