The annual “Taste Of Colorado” usually takes place over the Labor Day weekend. Taking a break from remodeling yesterday, I headed downtown for a break from work. Over the weekend, this festival has plenty of foods to choose from, street vendors and music. While wondering past the vendor booths, I passed by close to the Art Museum. The booth tents echoed the “point” of one of the museum buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were a variety of activities that people could explore. Two people were riding in Zorbs, and collided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stella Artois had set up a bar in an Airstream. 1366 was the year that the original brewery had been established in Belgium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Airstream had been cleaned and polished, so I explored some reflections from shiny surface as the sun was setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several bands played on two stages at the venue. I stopped to listen to the Remus Tucker band as per played various good hard-rock numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the band finished their set, I checked out some of the other events taking place. A new moon had risen over the horizon yesterday evening, so I looked for a composition that included the moon against a twilight sky. By this time, the Denver City and County Build had been lit up in blue. I included the blue buildings against warm twilight sky and new moon. By some quirk of fate, the clock on the clock tower seems to echo the crescent of the new moon!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I made my way to the stage located in front of the building. At this view point, the buildings were blue against the dark night sky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The last event of the day was a concert with Dwight Yoakam. He started the gig with various rock numbers, before playing country music numbers. This included songs by Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, after leaving the event, I headed off to the light rail station. Waiting for the traffic lights, I made this image of a nearby parking garage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
