Road tripped around southwestern Indiana on Saturday. I'm very glad to see people still enjoying these old places. #westbaden #frenchlick #plutowater #wonderindiana #aerialphotography

Landscape oriented photo of the inside of a MASSIVE domed atrium. The walls are six stories high (with three windows and then a pillar, going all the way around). Above the walls is a layer of tiny square windows, and then the dome. It is made like a bridge, with curved steel trusses in a wagon-wheel pattern (interspersed with skylights) reaching toward a hub in the center. In the center is an enormous suspended light fixture that looks like a mosaic flower with a huge stamen protruding outward and down, ending in an orb shape. Outside the skylights, the late afternoon/early evening sky is bright blue with a few puffy clouds. The floor is a vast expanse of mosaic tile and patterned carpet. There are soft seating areas scattered about - consisting of overstuffed leather couches, or armchairs. There are some large potted palms, as well. The vibe is very Art Nouveau. The sunlight is shining in from behind the camera, and spilling on the far left side of the wall. The pattern looks dappled from the pattern of the skylights. The whole place has a magical glow about it.
