Labor Day Evening on Harriet Island

I took a few minutes to hang out at Harriet Island on this Labor Day evening.  The sun was starting to set and it cast light splashes on the downtown buildings.

Techie Corner
I took the liberty of of removing all color from the image except for red and green.  I also applied a 30% gaussian blur and a high pass filter.

35 Double-blue

Lately when I've seen the 35W bridge, it's either been the standard white lights or no lights.  But last night it was electric blue.  I haven't seen it blue for quite a while.  I hope they start alternating colors again.  So far I've seen it electric blue, electric lime, electric mauve, and electric tangerine.

128 Years of Tranquility

I was out and about on this beautifully cool evening.  The Stone Arch Bridge looked so peaceful.

Nice Shoes

When I was out and about today, I happened to notice this chick while waiting for a stoplight.  Nice dress shoes.  I'm betting you didn't wear those when you took your motorcycle road test.

Ode to the State Fair

I bummed around at the Minnesota State Fair yesterday and thought I'd share a few pics with you, complete with rhyming verse.  (I knew you'd appreciate that.)
