Capitol Lake at Night

Saturday 11 September 2010

This is a view of Capitol Lake at night. Capitol Lake is part of the Washington State Capitol Campus.

A Nighttime View of Olympia

View from Madison Scenic

These are some of the nighttime views from Madison Scenic. This is the view toward the West of parts of downtown Olympia.

It was about 10pm on Tuesday 27 July 2010, and a two day old full Moon was rising in the East.

Here's a slideshow. It's somewhat repetitive, but I think it's an impressive scene. I thought the hills in the West looked impressive, dark and mysterious, in the humid night air. It felt spooky seeing the Black Hills faintly illuminated through the city lit glow of the warm humid night air under the light of the full Moon.

Feeling Better

I have been feeling somewhat ill during the past couple of weeks. Hopefully I am on the mend, today I felt much better overall. I went for a nice short easy jog that felt good. I haven't been jogging the past couple of weeks. Anyway, the weather has been gorgeous here in Olympia, which has made me feel somewhat the worse for not getting out and enjoying it more than I did. I did get out, as my flickr photos attest, just not as much as I would've liked. There were a couple gorgeous days when I didn't even make it out of the house (ugh).

Tonight I went to Madison Scenic Park and shot some night photographs. I am processing them now and hopefully they will be good enough to make a panorama that I will post here when it's done. The air was gorgeous, almost balmy and it was quiet. It was quiet enough, in fact, so that I could hear frogs croaking. Go frogs!!!

Olympia at Night

Tomorrow is the big day at Ft. Lewis for Ehren Watada. I am planning on attending some of the rallies and vigils, so it is straight to be and sleep for me!
