Description
The old Campus Theatre in downtown Denton, Texas, backlit in early morning light as the sun is eclipsed behind the beautiful dome of the historic Denton County Courthouse. I watched many movies here in my youth, first with my friends and later on a few dates. The old cinema has been reborn as a community theatre, fully refurbished inside by an old classmate of mine.

Gary Holmes, photographer: I am an opportunist photographer of nature, landscapes, abstract, and other found objects of interest. I prefer to capture the spontaneity of things and events as they are occurring, and rarely photograph staged subjects other than portraits. Although I have been a photographer for decades, I have only started posting them for others to see since about September 2012. Please see my largest collection of photographs posted at http://500px.com/holmesidepi. I had sufficient encouragement from posts on other sites to try putting some up for sale on Fine Art America (FAA), which offers a wide range of printing and mounting options not currently available on 500px. As a result, I have successfully sold some of my works. Unfortunately, photography is not my primary field, and I have limited time to expand my online presence, but I will continue to steadily post more of my best works on 500px and/or FAA every week. Please revisit my sites periodically.

Thank you very much to the person who purchased this photograph today. I hope you enjoy it. I spent many hours in this theatre in my youth, when it was one of only two movie theatres in town. Thanks also to Daniel and Rafael for your comments.
