Beauty on the Waterfront

Lake Harriet Bandshell Minneapolis
This is the Lake Harriet Bandshell along the Chain of Lakes in Minneapolis. It has such a unique place there along the lake with the sailboats in the back. I have never been there for a concert, but I bet it would be fun.

Lines, Circles, Faces

Guthrie Theater Minneapolis
The Guthrie Theater along the river in downtown Minneapolis is a photogenic building. At first it seems like odd angles and such. But take a look at a picture. See the shifts and changes. It now looks like a jazz arrangement put into a building. Quite a place to see theater as well!

Golden Cold

This is the Plummer Building at the Mayo Clinic in downtown Rochester. It was a cold evening with steam rising behind it which only gave the iconic Mayo building a greater golden appearance.
