LOVE it, love your themes!! Although, being the enormous football (Cleveland Browns!) fan that I am, I can't wait until stadiums like these are filled with rowdy fans in the Fall!!
It's so cool looking at the world from your viewpoint, Betty. These are really great pictures. The stadium is portrayed quite differently here when it is empty and no one is around as compared to how you usually think of it--full of people, crowded and noisy.
I like the light bouncing off the bleachers... BUT these images kind of upset me. When I was a kid watching track and field at our local stadium, I always imagined myself or someone else tumbling down the bleachers. You know how some people don't walk down on the steps, but on the actually bleachers? AAAAH!
whenever i see bleachers i think of like rocky or some movie where people are running up and down training. weird, i know. i also think of ny yankees bleacher creepers as they call them here.
BB what a unique silver post!! You are quite creative. Thank you for you kind words on our blog today. We are having fun, as my hubby says, on our Steeple Chase. The last Sunday in June will finish up the ones within a 10 mi radius of home. We're already working on ones outside 10 miles.... Madi and Mom
Aw dang, looks like I missed the big game. Oh well at least I won't have a problem finding a seat :) Cool pictures, the silver bleachers looks awesome against that blue sky
I must be getting old, but looking at bleachers just makes my back hurt. I think I am scarred from all those years of watching football games and the marching band in the cold weather. :)
awesome pictures, as always!!! i always think of running the bleachers.... my legs burning.... me sweating.... and a HORRIBLE fear of slipping down the stairs.... but there was an amazing sense of power once you reach the top and look over the edge.... like you're on top of the world.... =)
Great photos. I like the angles and perspectives. Too bad this game didn't bring in a single fan, though. I'm guessing it wasn't the World Cup. Cheers, xoRobyn
This makes me think of the stadium scene in LOST when Jack and Desmond are running up and down the stairs.... They were running in a bigger stadium though.... Great pictures....

Your pictures came out great!!!
Gorgeous. The weather looks mighty nice there. It's kind of drizzly there, I am so envious. Loving the different shots!
What a peaceful look, but also know how much merriement goes on there. Have a great day and great photos.
Great photos! I love all the clean lines and angles.
Nice work :)
Isn't it just amazing where we can find beauty in our world?!?! Wonderful photos, Betty!! You've brightened my day!
A track that has no one on it, that in itself is amazing! Great photos!
i adore your writing, but you could become a photo blog!
Your posts are always so different from everyone else's! Intriguing and beautiful :)
The second one is my favorite. Looks like benches in the sky.
Those are such cool shots.
Looks metallic, I love your shots, Betty.
Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend!

These pictures are spectacular! Such great contrast and lines. And the blue sky. Love them!
What great photos!
Great captures. I have trouble with
stadium shots.
And It won't be silent there much
longer...... can't ya just smell
football in the air..??
Wonderful photos!!!!! It is hard to capture, with any clarity, stadium bleachers. You did a great job!

What a clean, beautiful stadium.
Your pictures always come out so great.
It is too hot around here to go out and take pictures now.
More Betty please!

Silent and really damn clean!
Those are the cleanest bleachers I have ever seen.

but the images are really cool the way you captured them!
What a great angle on all of these photos. You have an artistic eye.
BB what a unique silver post!!

Wow - I love how they are cold and impersonal against the other colours. Perfect captured pics of symmetry and form. Lovely!
Take care

nice. like the change in perspectives...
Beautiful pictures:)
Beautiful blog.

What pretty shots! So sunny and yet so solitary...
The silver against the blue sky - looks fantastic.
Aw dang, looks like I missed the big game. Oh well at least I won't have a problem finding a seat :) Cool pictures, the silver bleachers looks awesome against that blue sky
Oh, now I don't know how to think of you: a writer? a photoer?
Either way, you are excellent at both. Excellent.
Great angles and lines in these shots!
hi! thanks for visiting me and for your lovely comments. i love what your ambition is to be in old age! ;)
Your photography Betty is poetry for the eyes.
I must be getting old, but looking at bleachers just makes my back hurt. I think I am scarred from all those years of watching football games and the marching band in the cold weather. :)
There is something so eerily cool about an empty stadium, no matter the size. Love these pictures.
What a peaceful day you had..Great shots as usual. Who would ever know that half the time these bleachers are filled with noisy happy fans.
Nice Pictures Betty,
Throws a whole new perspective on the bleachers, a peaceful one at that.
Kind of sad to see an empty stadium with no cheering fans. It is almost eerie. Nice shots!
Excellent photography!!
Are you here in Oz?
The windmill looks Outback..
I actually have a small one in my frontyard. love them.
God Bless. Crystal
New or newly scrubbed??
You really make me want to get a new camera!
awesome pictures, as always!!! i always think of running the bleachers.... my legs burning.... me sweating.... and a HORRIBLE fear of slipping down the stairs.... but there was an amazing sense of power once you reach the top and look over the edge.... like you're on top of the world.... =)
betty sits on top of the world today. ;)
It looks so peaceful! :)
Oh cool, this post was truly an experience. You really brought a little welcome stillness into my day.
Lines, perspective, shadows and curves. You've found it all. Great shots. Who knew an empty stadium could look so cool?
What a neat post!!!
I see those bleachers and remember having to climb them over and over again for gym class.
Who woulda thunk you could do so much with stadium bleachers...great photos.
Great photos. I like the angles and perspectives. Too bad this game didn't bring in a single fan, though. I'm guessing it wasn't the World Cup.
Cheers,

ooh, this makes me want to dust off my nikon.
beautiful shots - love the sense of linear symmetry.
You take the most amazing shots!
Those shots make me think, "the calm before the storm..."
What... no litter? Sure wouldn't look like that around here.
That last picture makes me think of the movie "Grease". "Tell me more, tell me more, did you get very far"
How blue is that sky! Wow!
Now I feel better. I thought I was the only one who took pictures of empty stadium seats. Whew! I feel much better now. Great pics, by the way!
I love the second and the last one in particular. The blue is out of this world!
Pun intended, of course!
Pretty. Looks like a gorgeous day.
This makes me think of the stadium scene in LOST when Jack and Desmond are running up and down the stairs.... They were running in a bigger stadium though.... Great pictures....
Your pictures came out great!!!
