Hello. Welcome to my new creative outlet for photography and writing. I'm still working on getting things in order, but keep checking back for progress updates and to find out what's happening on my block.  For new visitors, I'm Zach, a photographer and designer living in Oklahoma City. I'm a former print journalist who made the move to public relations a few years back. My favorite food is raw fish (a close tie with pho), my color palette for clothes tends to be brown and blue, I often wear Birkenstocks with dress pants; the only station I have programmed on my car radio is NPR and, thanks to my parents, my initials spell zen.

During construction to Oklahoma City's Capitol Hill High School, contractors recently discovered some of the gymnasium's original design features had been covered by a false wall. I had the oppurtunity today to climb up (a very small hole) and inside the ceiling of the gym to take photos of the architectural details that are still covered. The building, built in 1928, is currently being renovated as part of a $700 million bond issue passed by Oklahoma City residents in 2001 to improve area public schools.

More photos of Capitol Hill High School's original gymnasium can be viewed on my Flickr account.

Such a beautiful building. I can't wait to see it all done one day.
