Thanks a bunch, Steven, for that nice comment! The Alamo was a Spanish Mission before it was turned into a fortress. Beautiful architecture, that is for sure.

I really had no idea there was that much architectural detailing at the Alamo. Great use of the entablature and columns to frame the curved door opening. Guess I need to add another location to my bucket list of photographic destinations. v/fav

Put aside some time, James, for that trip!!! Not only is the Alamo gorgeous, but there are a number of other gorgeous Spanish Missions in the area. Amazing cathedral and governor's mansion, as well. You would be in architectural paradise! Thanks for the comment!
