Twilight Thursdays

Tonight was the first of the Twilight Thursdays, a fall-ish music series of outdoor concerts hosted by the Missouri Museum. I milled about the crowd and even squatted in front of the stage for a few minutes to get some shots. The crowd was full of colorful umbrellas and outfits, smiles, and singing. I wasn’t really in the mood to go out shooting after a long day—but so far, after nearly half a year of doing so near daily, I never regret it.

Afterwards I parked over on Euclid and walked around for an hour or so.  There wasn't much going on, just some folks enjoying dinner and drink, some out for a stroll.  I just took a few quick ones.  The light tonight was beautiful--my favorite conditions are partially cloudy and the hour before and then during golden hour.

This and the next few are from the previous evening, shot in Maplewood.  I went to visit their farmer's market.  It had cleared out by the time I arrived so I fixed on a polarized lens and decided to shoot through some windows, and then visit Side Project--a small brewer voted best in the nation two years running.
