Ferris Wheel

I’ve been going to the Minnesota State Fair for many years, and each year I want to spent more time there than the previous. Sometimes it works out. This year I’ve been there every day since it opened. Yesterday I actually went twice, early in the day by myself, and in the evening with family. Just love wandering around, sampling food, listen to the music (really wish I had seen Rush), talk to some of the exhibiters. Even got a chance to meet Jason DeRusha at the WCCO building today.

I’ll probably make it back there a couple more times, one of them hopefully with my Dad. Also would like to chat with Tarryl Clark a bit.

And if time permits might even have a few more photos this week.

July Storm

Saw this thunderstorm on the way back from a weekend at our camper up north. You could easily see its explosive growth by just watching it for few seconds. The anvil at the top of the cloud forms when the top of the thunderstorm reaches high enough to get caught in the upper level winds.

Country Chapel

Bavaria has quite a few churches and monasteries scattered throughout the country side. I spotted this chapel on the outskirts of a small town, and had to pull over for a few shots. For other Monochrome Weekly photos check here.
