The challenge this week is to find shots that feature the letter ‘A’. After a little searching, managed to find a few that fit…
Starting off with astronaut Neil Armstrong. This shot is from the Heinz History Center in Pittsburgh when they had the Command Module Columbia on display as part of the 50th Anniversary of the Apollo 11 Mission. I thought this was a cool shot of him on the elevator doors.
And here’s the actual Command Module Columbia that took them to the moon and back…amazing.
Time for a little baseball…a shot of the entrance to the Los Angeles Angels ballpark.
And another California ballpark, the Oakland Coliseum…home of the Oakland A’s.
And one more ‘A’…Alcatraz. A shot from the ferry boat on my way to visit the former prison a few years back.
Thanks to Patti for the theme for this week’s challenge.
Cool astronaut shots, Andy! I remember it clearly…I guess most of us “oldies” do!
Yep, can’t help but think about it every time I look at the moon. Thanks Ann-Christine 🙂

Great photos thanks for posting them.
Thanks Geri, glad you enjoyed them 🙂
Great selections. Angel Stadium AND Anaheim! 🙂
Thanks John. Hard to keep track of these stadiums with their name changes…lol
These are certainly wonderful A’s. Such a lovely day to enjoy the game in the field, isn’t it 🙂
Perfect weather and it was a good game as well…thanks for stopping by Hammad.
Great series, Andy! The astronaut Neil Armstrong, really cool!! So is the home of the Oakland A’s.
Thanks Amy…
Excellent examples Andy with an A! Loved the history of your opening images – such a special moment. Don’t you remember it as if it were yesterday? And of course am happy to see you’ve included some baseball images – your trademark!
Agree Tina, hard to believe that “one small step” was taken over fifty years ago…ugh! Had to think a little baseball after our first snowfall the other day 🙂
Oh No! Such a long winter up there. I remember we had snow on college graduation day in May. It is beautiful early in the season tho.
Nice “A’s”. I especially enjoyed the first shot of the elevator doors.

Great ones, Andy! Of course! I have an astronaut photo too. Why didn’t I think of that?? I love the shot of the elevator doors and Alcatraz.
Lol…thanks Patti 🙂
