Gateway to the West
Any trip to St. Louis requires a stop at the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial.
"The Gateway Arch reflects St. Louis’ role in the Westward Expansion of the United States during the nineteenth century. The park is a memorial to Thomas Jefferson’s role in opening the West, to the pioneers who helped shape its history, and to Dred Scott who sued for his freedom in the Old Courthouse."
For some great shots of the Arch, visit previous Thursdays at St. Louis DP.

Wow! I love the big photos!
This gateway is really something and lovely against the blue sky! Good day!
Seems like you can take a picture from any angle and it turns out incredibly. I love this perspective.
I am not understanding what is this? is it a sidewalk to heaven? i like the picktur becalse it is very pretty.
That is such a fantastic picture - I'm very impressed. I really want to see that arch someday, though I suspect I'd end up taking a million pictures!
Bravo! A bobsled track from heaven. Very nice lighting and gradations of tone.

Ah, the Arch! View from the top is nice, too, even though the ride is slightly bumpy and mildly claustrophobic.
