Our blogging fell behind again, but this time it was technical difficulties with Picasa. They developed a bug shutting down their e-mailing capabilities. Since Picasa was our only (easy) tool for sizing and sending pictures to the blog, we chose to wait. If we have not said it before, we highly recommend the free Google Picasa picture editing program. Now that the bug has been fixed, we can finally catch back up to date (if I can remember back that far).
It had rained all night but seemed to be letting up in the early morning hours. We headed out in the dark to see if we could capture some cloud drama. We were not alone as we re-visited Mormon Row and Schwabacher's Landing. The skies were certainly not ideal, but still quite beautiful. Of course, with the sun obscured by clouds, there was not a lot of color. Joani reduced the color saturation in a few of her favorites to create the black and white photos below.
A bit later in the morning, the skies continued to clear and Joani had the idea to return to the National Museum of Wildlife Art to capture some of the outdoor sculpture with nice clouds as her backdrop.
OK, this one captured the museum building in the background.
This guy was huge! - his back was about 7 feet in the air.
