Nine minutes before sunset. Tropical moisture from the Desert Southwest makes its annual trek over the Sierra Nevada Mountains in Tuolumne County, California. The last thing we need is lightning! Major rain and any snow won't return to this dry climate until November or so.
The Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts is 1,600-seat, 151,000-square-foot (14,000 m2) concert hall located in Carmel, Indiana.
After years of planning, The Palladium, one of three venues that comprises the Center for the Performing Arts, opened on January 29, 2011 and today serves as a venue for various musical concerts and performances. It is located at 1 Center Green, adjacent to the Carmel City Center. The four-fronted, symmetrical design of The Palladium, massed around the domed central space of the single room concert hall was inspired by Andrea Palladio’s Villa Capra, La Rotonda (1566). The Palladium is based upon the traditional shoebox-shaped concert hall with high ceilings and massive, sound-reflecting walls. The facility also features a limestone façade and movable acoustical panels that can significantly alter the acoustics of the hall.
The Palladium was designed by David M. Schwarz Architects of Washington, D.C. with local consultation by CSO Architects as Architect of Record. Indianapolis-based Shiel Sexton Co. Inc. served as construction manager.
The Palladium is home to the Great American Songbook Foundation. The organization's administrative headquarters are located on the Gallery level.
The other two venues that comprise the Center are the 500 seat Tarkington Theatre and the Studio Theatre – a black box with flexible seating.
Steven Libman was the founding President and CEO of The Center for the Performing Arts from 2009 to 2011. While there, he successfully planned and launched the first few seasons and produced two major opening night festival galas with: Michael Feinstein, Chris Botti, Neil Sedaka, Dionne Warwick, David Hyde Pierce and dancers from American Ballet Theatre. He also produced a PBS special with Michael Feinstein seen by 11 million viewers. The special titled "Michael Feinstein: The Sinatra Project" was nominated for Outstanding Music Direction at the 64th Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards.
In 2012, Tania Castroverde Moskalenko was hired to lead the organization. She was previously the CEO at the Germantown Performing Arts Center in Germantown, TN. Under her leadership, the Center continued to expand the breadth and diversity of programming offered in its three venues and attained increased funding from individual and corporate sources. In March 2015, the Center announced a significant four-year sponsorship agreement with Carmel-based Allied Solutions.
In August 2016 Moskalenko resigned from her position and Board Chair, Jeffrey C. McDermott (Partner, of the law firm Krieg DeVault) assumed the role of Interim President and CEO. In August 2017 McDermott was officially elected by the Center Board as the new full time President/CEO. McDermott will also remain Senior Counsel to Krieg DeVault.

The Big Dipper was just coming into view when I took this 48 minutes after sunset. There were light clouds and smoke from distant wildfires to hinder comet watching, but it appeared faintly before I went inside.
Panorama just before sunset, with an unusual mid-spring, cool and wet system dipping into central California.
An early morning shot taken on Mount Wellington near Hobart in Tasmania.
This shot was originally taken sometime between 2006 and 2009 in Hobart, Tasmania.
Original colour slide was taken with a 3D World medium format stereo film camera, 80mm lens, using Fuji Provia 100 colour slide film. Scanned with a Canon R10 with RF24-240mm lens and Nisi close up attachment.
The passing stormclouds on the horizon were fillled with light every time the lightning flashed, adding to the peach coloured afterglow from the sunset. The solar powered lamps on the bird-watchinig jetty were shining brightly as were the stars overhead. It all added up to a wonderful light-show!
To the naked eye, all was mostly dark, but the 30 second exposure brought out the light and colours (along with some slight star trails).

The day started with snow low in the foothills of Tuolumne County, California. Very dark clouds in the afternoon. Clearing skies just before sunset.
Temperatures and conditions are yo-yo-ing around the ballpark. We had several days 10-20 degrees above normal and now a run 10-15 degrees below normal. While these clouds looked pretty serious, no rain came.

After more than three months of high temperatures and no sign of rain on the horizon, promising clouds are gracing our sky.
To put this into perspective, my back yard rain gauge has recorded less than 10 inches of rain since October 1, 2020.
No conference calls, no spreadsheets or teams, no bad coffee, no confining walls ... just me, fresh air, my camera and the universe. Everything was in order.
Today the Turkey Vultures enjoyed the high winds and I was enchanted with the clouds. A very pleasant day to be outdoors.
