Photographer's Note
This is taken from atop Discovery World's Pilot House in Wisconsin. In this shot I'm looking in the opposite direction from my first Pilot House image, and it's a few minutes later. The sun is setting behind me and we are looking east across the southern end of the Lake Michigan.
The city of Milwaukee is to our left and behind us. As with all Milwaukee images, this was taken with my friend's Canon EOS 20D.
The pink tones you see in this picture are the reason I was inspired to shoot that evening. I've added some contrast and sharpened just a hair, but that's about it. I was lucky enough to have this space all to myself for awhile and I relished the opportunity.
You can probably tell why so many people rent out this space for weddings and other special occasions. It can accommodate 500 people. There's even special lighting inside so you can match the ambient light to your wedding colors. The building has floor to ceiling windows that can be darkened with curtains to show movies. Events at Discovery World also have access to a very high quality catering company called Bartolotta.

Ciao dear Rachel,
beautiful graphic and chromatic composition. The only line perfectly straight line is that of the sea in contrast with the pleasant and sinuous lines created by the human ingeniousness. A photo that shows all of your artistic creativeness. Compliments!
Ciao, have a beautiful day!

Hi Rachel,
I like the 'blue light' capture at day's end, even more so than the previous image. Once again the angular lines with curved ones make this appealing.
Good job,
Ray
PS: I will let you know when I get my sailboat.
Also, you can check out my lot for sale overlooking the 'Lake' in Clearlake Riviera on SHORELINE REALTY, Iroquois Trail. I will be there Wednesday morning to checkout the lot clearing progress.
