Roberto Brown Photography

... I?ve always been more interested in photographs that are sublime, moody, symbolic, surreal, and sometimes dark and gnarled. One problem I find with postcard-type shots is that they all look like the same photographer took them. They may be technically excellent, but they don?t say much about the person who snapped the shutter. I hope my photos are extensions of me, extensions of my obsessions and fears and ideals.

I hope they say something about me and the way I view the world.

Stone Buildings and Their Building Stone

This quaint page is a gallery of images of buildings and the stones of which they are built. Each row of the table below is a link to a page with larger-format images and explanatory text.

In this gallery, you'll find many of the usual stone buildings: for example, castles, churches, and courthouses of sandstone and limestone. However, you'll also find a barn, an aircraft hangar, a gymnasium, and a railroad roundhouse built of stone, and you'll find coal, chert nodules, and calcrete among the stones used.

Amphibious Cars

The Terra Wind gives a whole new meaning to cross country touring. "It is exceptionally unique," says John Giljam, President. The Terra Wind has the ability to travel on highways at speeds of up to 80 mph or may also serve as a yacht; crossing the water at 7 knots. A Caterpillar engine, Allison transmission and Neway front and rear air suspension make the drive smooth and reliable.

On the water an all aluminum hull, a marine drive transmission and one touch rudder control makes maneuvering the Terra Wind unbelievably simple. Safety features include two onboard automatic fire extinguishers and a three zone bilge pump system.

Human Bones Art

The Sedlec Ossuary (a.k.a. Kostnice) is a small Christian chapel decorated with human bones. It's located in Sedlec, which is a suburb in the outskirts of the Czech town Kutna Hora. In 1996 I visited the place and fell madly in love with it.
