I was doing some executive portrait work this week, and took a couple of shots of the setup.
Can you guys guess where this photographer from Coppell (Dallas area) spent his week?

I'm guessing the same... just a bit from the new stadium for the cowboys.
as far as getting more specific than that... can't tell. But at this day and age... I'm guessing you weren't in the exec's office. The giant tube monitor and a typewriter are about the last thing I'd want to see in an exec's office.

The guess is wrong, but good call on the office area. They stuck me in the back with the old, moldy stuff.
As for the guys I was shooting, let's just say that for most of them, I couldn't even afford one of their ties.

Looks like Minute Maid Park out the window. Houston Astros execs, maybe?!

Winner winner chicken dinner.
Not nearly as sexy as MLB, though. It was Wachovia Securities. I was seeing if you could guess the city.
I was wondering how long it would take you guys to recognize Minute Maid Park.
