If you are in northern Colorado, get out there and see the Aurora. It is pretty awesome.

Shadows from sunlight come through an old glass window and fall on the ceiling. Leaves and trees from outside are visible as shadows.

The light is constantly changing in different rooms making for interesting photos throughout the day.

Drawing group this morning with a few friends was a nice way to relax.

I drew the cover of a book depicting George Sorel who I had not heard of. He apparently was a political commentator with some rather extreme views. Not my kind of person.

Contrails from engines on planes are lit up by the full moon in the night sky. Parts of trees are lit up from street lights and the moon, while other parts are in shadow.

This was a good test of Night Mode in the Pixel camera app on Android.

Cafe Paperika restaurant in #Denver #Colorado.

Text from the shop windows was being cast as shadows on the mural of a desert scene. The shadows were moving along the wall fast in the setting sun.

A 2013 photo that I called "Lines of Power".

The photo is of the shadows of a chain link fence going over power utility lines at a baseball field in #FortCollins #Colorado. This side of the fence was a concrete walkway.

A test shot of four landscaping rocks sitting on a patio table. This was an experiment taking a few photos with my phone to test out what had changed in the Android Pixel Camera app. Software updates have changed a lot of how things are done.

A few photos from the Tuesday night Everyday Joe and Jane bowling league at Chippers Lanes North in #FortCollins #Colorado

Bowling has been a fun activity and way to meet new folks. Before this I had only bowled a few times, but remembered that I enjoyed it.

The Poudre Valley Playboys were the musical talent at our neighborhood's block party. They are amazingly talented and great musicians.

It had been awhile since I had set up audio equipment like PAs, monitors and a mixer but it went smoothly.

The sun was hitting the trees across the street in a way that lit one of the tree trucks up in a ghostly white. Seeing that large tree without its leaves was certainly different. Some trees still have their leaves, while others are completely bare. It certainly is colder out.

A windmill on a farm is lit up by the Fall sun. Yellow leaves on trees are in the background behind wood and white picket fencing.

This was across a dirt road from an artist's studio that I was visiting on a citywide art studio tour day.

The raised bed garden in our yard is empty of the tomato, cucumber, zucchini and other plants from this year. Everything was harvested before freeze warnings, then the stalks and limbs taken out for yard waste collection.
