Superior Crescent

A waning crescent moon (3.8% illumination) hovers above Lake Superior near Duluth, Minnesota. A ship is seen moving eastward toward Sault St. Marie.

Duluth Entry

Was able to pop down to Duluth Entry while I was in town. Would have liked a large ship, but got to see the aerial lift bridge go up briefly at least (for a tourist vessel).

Historic Old Central High School

This impressive edifice stands near the center of Duluth, Minnesota. The Richardsonian Romanesque building opened in 1893. The clock tower still keeps time, chiming on the quarter hour. It's listed on the National Registry of Historic Places as one can see here.

Time Lapse

Another view from Duluth—nine years apart. The location is a spot near where East 6th Street and North 1st Avenue East intersect.

It's odd: a couple trees have been removed, which makes for a confusing time lapse as foliage usually grows in these time comparison diptychs. Two images by Richard Koenig; taken in September of 2015 (achromatic) and August of 2024 (color).
