The shot I posted yesterday was a rushed shot, as I wanted to get a quick shot in case the rainbow started to fade away. This shot I took my time with and got my camera on a tripod. By this point, the rainbow was starting to fade away, and the second rainbow is hardly noticeable. So in this case, I'm glad I got my rushed shot, but also glad I took my time later on.
And while I'm taking this shot, there is this dude on a bench behind me, telling me I'm missing the shot as he chain smokes. I'm not sure what he was on, but he kept trying to get me to look at this opening in the sky that he thought was changing colors. I don't think he even saw the rainbow.......

Located in downtown Amherst, Virginia, this attractive structure served as the Amherst County Courthouse beginning in 1872, followed by the construction of a newer building in the 1990s. I took this shot while driving through Amherst several years ago. Information from the town's website and a couple of other courthouse websites.
Here's a straight-ahead shot of the Culpeper County Courthouse, which I took with a vertical perspective, as opposed to the angled horizontal shot already on my photostream.
Built: 1767, still in active use.

"The Chowan County Courthouse is a historic courthouse in Edenton, the county seat of Chowan County, North Carolina. Built in 1767, it is one of the finest examples of public Georgian architecture in the American South. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1970.
The old Chowan County Courthouse is located in downtown Edenton, at the northwest corner of East King and Court Streets. It is separated from the city waterfront by a one-block park. It is a two-story, T-shaped Georgian style building. It has a one-story semicircular apse at its center rear and features a two-stage wooden cupola with ogival roof surmounted by a tall-weathervane. The interior has a large courtroom on the ground floor, and a ballroom on the second. The building has seen only relatively modest alterations.
Edenton was settled in 1658 and incorporated in 1712, and is counted as the first permanent European settlement in North Carolina. Its first courthouse, built in 1719, was also the seat of the colonial assembly, and was located on the land of the park. This courthouse was commissioned to be built in 1766, and completed in 1767, and its design has been attributed to Gilbert Leigh, who was living in Edenton at the time of its construction. It has also been attributed to John Hawks, who designed Tryon Palace in New Bern, was active in North Carolina at the time. It is the oldest courthouse building in North Carolina.
The courthouse is one of several sites of Historic Edenton. Other historic sites open for tour include the James Iredell House, Roanoke River Light, Barker House, Cupola House and St. Paul's Church." (Wikipedia)

A beautiful mountain near Sedona, Arizona. This view of courthouse Butte is from the SW on a hiking trail that leads to the far side of this mountain. The vegetation in the foreground is fierce. It protects itself with hard, sharp thorns of every size and description. Approach with great caution. Many of these plants are quite old as they grow very slowly.

On the other side of this building is the much more colorful Superman museum in Metropolis, IL. However, instead of focusing on that, I decided to focus on the rear of this fairly innocuous building. The thing that drew me to this building, of all things, are small yellow signs by the doors indicating that this building would serve as a nuclear fallout shelter.

This is The Courthouse, Athy, Co. Kildare. Quite why it warrants an entry in the Irish Tourist Association collection is not clear at all. It is a fine building in the “very curvy style” and I see our old friend Bill Stickers has been very busy on the gable end.
Photographer: Irish Tourist Association Photographer
Collection: Irish Tourist Association Photographic Collection
Date: Likely May or June 1944.

The Old Courthouse (officially called the Old St. Louis County Courthouse) was built as a combination federal and state courthouse in St. Louis, Missouri. Missouri's tallest habitable building from 1864 to 1894, it is now part of the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial and operated by the National Park Service used for historical exhibits and events. The Old Courthouse was the site of the first two trials of the pivotal Dred Scott case in 1847 and 1850. It was also where Virginia Minor's case for a woman's right to vote came to trial in the 1870s.

Visited Courthouse Falls today for the first time. It was the third stop of an all day photo outing with my friend and neighbor, Mark Turnau.
I wasn't expecting much from this waterfall based on some write-ups I've read but was pleasantly surprised with it. Due to recent rains, the flow was quite high so that may have helped. Finding a good (and safe) composition was challenging. But I don't mind this one too bad.
Please check back for other photos in the coming days and check out Mark's photo stream too.
Always appreciate any comments you might care to share. Have a great weekend.

The courthouse in Lawrenceburg, Indiana was built in 1870-1871 from limestone in the Greek Revival Style. Image was taken from the floodwall to it's south. Dearborn County has the reputation of being one of the toughest on crime in Indiana. Drugs are responsible for much of the crime. Drugs changed America. The steam in the background is from a gas fired generating plant.
I waited months to take this shot, coming back to this spot numerous times hoping for a decent sky. I would always get the bald blue conditions so many of us loathe in landscape photography. This particular morning, however, I was rewarded with a great sky that moved in just about 10 minutes before sunrise! Arches National Park, Utah
