I'm getting very attached to the buildings of the World Financial Center so far this summer. The blank modern design of the complex is like an invitation to find angles and shapes, to reflect the New York summer in the square windows, to play games with the sunny baked colors.

Our weekly selection of Thursday glee over in the tribal headquarters of the Utata photo group includes the ongoing Utata Thursday Walk, which is an open-ended and unstructured walk through the day, camera in hand. As it happens, open-ended and unstructured are my middle names. It's a terrific way to focus the mind's eye, and since there are no goals, I respond to each one in interesting and unpredictable ways. Or so it seems to me, at least.

I have mostly done my walks on Fridays, when I'm off work. It makes Thursdays a state of mind, which I rather like. This Thursday was my last day of work until fall, and my Friday excursion lacks focus some - which is just the way I like it, sometimes.

See the rest of my Thursday Walk images in the Getting the Hang of Thursdays set.
