It’s green week at Mitchster.com. Now that summer is really, really here I thought I’d share some of what makes winter tolerable here.
This was taken on the nature trail north of Lake Harriet.
Remember the Doomsday Clock? I found one for the US debt, only nobody knows when midnight is. Just this last Tuesday while everyone was talking about a whole in the bottom of the Ocean, the US Debt crossed over to Thirteen Trillion Dollars. That’s been on my mind this week and when I saw these lights in front of the Minneapolis branch of the US Federal Reserve I noticed this interesting perspective on the building. By the way, the US Debt Clock is an interesting site with an amazing amount of information in a small space, check it out.
Somehow these grizzly post-winter scenes seem to need modern abstract art titles.
Can’t believe it came out, I managed to get the moon to show up with this row of glass insulators. This power tower as well as the rest in the series, are in Energy Park in the middle of the Mississippi by downtown Minneapolis.
Grain Elevators at the Gold Medal Flour building, now the Mill City Museum.
The Gold Medal Flour sign sits atop the Mill City Museum on the Minneapolis side of the Mighty Mississippi. The next few days’ photos are from different angles of the old mill.
This is one of my favorite photos from my day at the Conservatory. The sun was out, not a cloud in the sky, so not only was the reflected sky blue, but with my f/1.4 lens I was looking at a very fast shutter speed. The layering of light, shadow, reflection and textures was an absolute delight to see through the lens.
Today is my little sister’s birthday, Happy Birthday Sharon!
