Description

A funny thing happened during my photo-shoot of the capitol building in Jefferson City, Missouri about two weeks ago...a blimp slowly flew over. How often do you see that these days? Most of the light on the dome was from the setting sun.

Talk about timing! What a great shot, Bill! With the lighting on the Capital building, the sky, and the timely appearance of the blimp, this has a rather ethereal feel to it. I like it very much! Happy Birthday (a little late), by the way! :-D

And a political blimp too, as I recall. I wondered at the time what their purpose was. Flying a blimp around the Capitol building at sunset on a Friday night seems like a non event. Who saw it besides us? I love the light on the dome. This is a wonderful shot, and the ineffable blimp adds a layer of mystery! :*

What luck! The golden light is so warm, makes a cold building attractive.

Hey...that's damn cool.... Missouri hey? St Louis is on my bucket list. It is the home of my most favorite sports team.... the St Louis Blues of the NHL... Been a fan of the Blues hockey team since 1968.... I hope to see David Backes hoist the Stanley Cup this year....

Geat photo with good fortune with both light and derigible! I'm a bit surprised the blimp was allowed so close to the capitol building, considering the security situation in today's world. Keep up the good work! :-)

Kind of reminds me of the opening credits of Saturday Night Live, the one where the subway goes past and get picked up by one of the cast members. What a great coincidence that the blimp happened to photobomb your shot of the capitol! Love that light!

Funny ? - I wouldn't think so - rather - what an amazing coincidence, and how lucky can you be ? WOW - Bill, you just know when you can hear them above, being the former flying ace ... say no more ;))) I wouldn't even know, if they make a sound at all ??? a sight to behold, BB
