Skyline and Orion's Belt

 

Santa Cruz

 

This picture was taken from the Community Wharf in Santa Cruz, CA--one of my favorite spots in the relatively limited amount of North American real estate through which I have traveled. 

Downtown Kansas City Skyline

 

Great Salt Lake, Utah

 In the interest of determining the way this blog template works, I need to write a fairly large block of text here. So . . . I took this picture while driving westward through Salt Lake City.  The lake itself, (The Great Salt Lake) is to the west of the city. At some point, the water is visible from the Interstate, and I pulled over and took this picture. I have to say the reality feels pretty much like this picture. Lots of sky, and below that a thin ribbon of terrain below the shimmering optics of the horizon. In the interests of full disclosure, as I recall, this was taken with the little Canon point-and-shoot, or possibly with my cell phone.

Downtown Kansas City

Part of downtown Kansas City where Main intersects 7th street, thence becoming Delaware as it heads over I-70 to the River Market area.
