Cotton Clouds

We took a hike every day this week, and for the most part it was beautiful. One this particular day, the blue sky was spotted with cotton like clouds. It was a great day for a nice, long hike.

Try to stay cool .. the tempeatures and humidity put the heat index super high, making this dangerous for many. Be safe!

No Rain This Time

Adjustments.jpeg

This photo is from a couple of weeks ago. This is one of the fishing ponds at the Stillwater Prairie Reserve. I could not resist the photogaph of the clouds and the reflection in the pond.

It looks like it may be about to rain, but on this day I stayed dry. A few days later, I took a shower when a sudden downpour caught me off guard 🌧. I was walking on the bike path about 1 mile from home when the rain started. To say I was soaked is an understatement. 🤣

Space needle

The Space Needle was built for the the 1962 World’s Fair. It is unique, and stands out in the Seattle skyline.

I was in Seattle for a conference.  We arrived at the hotel late in the evening, and I was very tried. At this point in time, all I wanted was some sleep. When I travel, I almost always take a look out the room window before going to bed. The view exceeded my expectations.! The Space Needle at night is stunning.

The best photos often happen like this .. be curious, and look around. Night photos are difficult, especially with nothing but an iPhone. This came out much better than I expected.

The Chicago skyline

FullSizeRender.jpg

I took this picture while riding a bus from McCormick Place to the Chicago Hilton earlier this year. I was in Chicago for the NRA show .. no, not that NRA. I was there for the National Restaurant Association Show. 

The taller building is the Willis Tower, formally known as the Sears Tower. At 1450 feet tall, it was the tallest building in the world for 25 years. It may not hold that title today, but it still stands out in the Chicago skyline.
