My friend Steve recently visited the Amazon Spheres — yes he stepped foot inside those fabulous buildings I was only able to photograph from the outside (here). But because he's a good friend he sent me a few photos, and gave me permission to share them. He also threw out this little tidbit "maybe I can organize something for your next visit" (OMG!). Stay tuned for that, but in the meantime enjoy these...

Love this look at the tall green wall.

Finally, I had to include this image Steve took of the mechanicals at the top of one of the spheres.
