GATEWAY is a record of my photographs of the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri, the city where I live. I am obsessed with our great monument. It is a paean to American Westward expansion. The Arch was completed in 1966 and stands 630 feet / 192 meters high. It is exactly as wide as it is tall.
To me, the Arch is the most beautiful monumental sculpture in the world. I look at it every day as I drive to work and from my office window. It has moods. It is different at every hour, in every season and in every kind of weather. I never tire of it. For the last few years I have photographed it over and over, trying to avoid postcard cliches. Each time I carry my camera to its feet I look for something new.
Most of these pictures have been published in my other blog, St. Louis Daily Photo, documenting local life since March 2007. Come have a look.

Beautiful and simple. You're right about that. Like the way the trees appear to be bendind down.

Well, it is very deliberately and perfectly composed. Which is not as simple as it looks. Very nice.
Love your work. Do you sell them?
Dana
