I will be traveling to Dallas next week on business. I don't know yet what opportunities I will have to get out for some shots, but just in case does anyone have any suggestions on good locations? I know that my time will be limited, so just heading out blind would probably not be very fruitful. I will be traveling light, probably just the camera and 2 lenses (18-70mm and 11-16mm are my first thoughts). Thanks for any suggestions!

I didn't find Dallas to be exactly photographer-friendly...in fact just the opposite.

Lots of great opportunities.

The "Traveling man" sculptures are just east of downtown Dallas across and down the street from the Deep Ellum DART station:


Lots of good cityscapes to be had, especially from the spillway that wraps around the west and south of downtown:


Other Dallas scenes around the downtown area:


Fair Park, just east of downtown:



If you want specific locations for any of the above, just let me know. I have most of these on Flickr and can easily add a map location to them, if not already mapped.

Oh, and if you enjoy a little trespassing with your photography, I don't think the Margaret Hunt-Hill bridge is open to traffic yet.


Let me know when you will have a chance to get out, I work about 10 miles from downtown and would be happy to meet up with you one evening for a walkabout.

Thanks Spiff! I will be in town Tuesday 6/12 and fly out Friday night, 6/15. I won't really know my schedule until I arrive, but I'll shoot you a PM as far in advance as I can if I can get away by myself one evening for a walkabout.
