This week, it was time for another visit downtown. Near Union Station, the low sun cast streetlamp shadows on an adjacent building.
Looking up, the I made this image of the sky reflected in the windows.
Heading across Commons Park, to the Platte River, I found this snowmen family. We had a snow storm earlier this week, with a few inches of snow in the city. Just after making this image the big guy on the right collapsed.
From here, I headed towards the Highland Bridge, over I-25. Time for some more window reflections in the glass.
At this bridge, I was greeted by a young lady, offering high fives to passers by. I obliged and then made my way across. Next to the bridge abutment on the far side, was an artist hard at work with a sketch pad.
From this side of the highway, one can see Mile High Stadium, where the Broncos were playing football today. I tried to find a location where I could make an image of the stadium. Unfortunately, the skyline was very cluttered, so I abandoned that idea. I headed back over the highway on a different bridge. Several runners passed by on the wet sidewalk. I managed to capture an reflection of the last runner, just as the bus was pulling away from the bus stop.
There were still trees with their autumn colors. These colors were reflected in the Platte River.
A pedestrian had started crossing the adjacent bridge on foot. I waited until he had walked into the open space for this image.
The sun was about to start setting. I found one cloud that was catching the sunset light above this building.
As I got nearer to Union Station, the sunset colors became more intense. This apartment block was bathed in sunset light, reflected from the base of the clouds.
Crossing to the other side of the Millennium Bridge, the sun created its own fire in the sky!
I could hear the light rain train approaching Union Station. As I got closer, it was my ride back home. Time to go!
