"Purple Sunset" Photo of the Day: September 13, 2015


Yesterday evening I spent a good deal of time wandering throughout the parks surrounding the historic Stone Arch Bridge in Minneapolis. During a dazzling sunset, I made my way to the shore of the Mississippi River to get some photographs of the dramatic purple colors. Here in Minnesota, god is a Vikings fan!

Photo of the Day: August 12, 2015 "Stone Arch Bridge in Minneapolis"


I rarely post photos not taken on my Nikon, but this is one that I shot from my iPhone this past February. Taken on the East bank of the Mississippi River - facing downtown Minneapolis - the centerpiece of this photograph is the historic Stone Arch Bridge. The illuminated stone arches created all sorts of interesting shadows on the frozen river. Despite it being one of the coldest nights that I have ever been out shooting, I was pleasantly surprised by some of the photos that I got, including this one taken on my iPhone. I lightly edited it to remove as much of the noise (grain) as possible from the dark areas of the photo.
