In other words: View from a Vista-Dome: Dazzle Cities is a MUST-SEE!
* My apologies to James Reeder (a gifted photographer) for these 'hack' images. I took the photos tonight and just had to post them. James did a marvelous job with his minstallation, and it must be shared!

Hi Robert, you were asking about Vista-Domes, here is a link: http://www.vistadome.com/ Pre-highway system, train-travel was the ultimate way to view the vast panaramas north, east, west and south, and the vista-dome cars provided the best unobstructed views. my interest in them for this project is as a device for linking the colossal man-made with the natural sublime. many advertisements in national geographics from the 30s-50s feature full page campaigns for train travel by vista-dome car, and often there will also be an ad featuring a giant waterfall with dwarfed figures at the base alongside an ad for the most grand of hotels in NY.
thanks for posting the pics of the show!
