The National & The War On Drugs

September 27, 2024Concerts, MusicJonathan

Purple and blue lights stream from a stage where a band is performing at night. Video screens on either side of the stage show the lead singer. A 12 story apartment building can be seen in the background.

I’ve been fortunate to see some great concerts this summer. Last night I caught the dual headlining show featuring The National and The War On Drugs, which was held at Breese Stevens Field. I’ve been very fond of these two groups for quite a while now, and seeing them both live for the first time did not disappoint.

Dome glow

The dome of the State Capitol is illuminated at night. The facade behind the columns on the side of the building are also lit with nighttime lights.

Autumn is fast approaching

September 19, 2024Autumn, TreesJonathan

A tree with orange leaves stands next to a hiking trail. Green oak leaf branches frame the top of the photo and trees with green leaves are on one side and in the foreground.

Despite the mid-summer like temperatures we’ve been experiencing, autumn is on its way.

Reaching for the sky

September 17, 2024Prairie, SkyJonathan

Tall chutes of prairie grass bending in the wind. In the background is a blue sky with a few wispy clouds.

September, when the prairie grass is practically sky high.

Close up of several clusters of white, star shaped blossoms in front of a shadowy green background.

I’ve seen a lot of these tiny beauties while walking the woods lately.

Mostly cloudy

September 13, 2024Lakes, Reflections, SkyJonathan

A mostly cloudy sky is also reflected in the calm waters of a lake. A wooden pier just halfway out into the picture from the bottom.

Flyby

September 11, 2024SkyJonathan

An airplane flies high in the sky and leaves a long contrail along side the view of a thin, crescent moon. The moon and contrail are colored orange from the setting sun.

The beauty of the sky

September 9, 2024Lakes, Silhouette, SkyJonathan

Streaks of pastel colors in the sky over a lake. A woman in silhouette sits on a large rock in the foreground, watching the sunset.

I was grateful for the beauty of the sky the other night. Looks like I wasn’t the only one.
