My knee held up pretty well and I was kind of babying it a little anyway. Anyway, I took another photo of our brand new dam and pedestrian bridge across the Arkansas River here in Tulsa. This is a view from the southwest side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr wp-block-embed-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2qgYFkY\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/54002061042_d7da0c029c.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_3587\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>And this is a view from the northeast side. The river sure looks good with water in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr wp-block-embed-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2qgYFgE\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/54002060792_fac274af73.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_3590\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>And I rode back to my car down the east side of the river. Stopped for this photo. The hill on the other bank is the Turkey Mountain Urban Wilderness Area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr wp-block-embed-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2qgDvbx\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53998319727_17cd9b5813_c.jpg\" alt=\" \" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Sunday night I was taking our refuse and recycling carts to the curb for weekly pickup and I noticed this reflection of the sunset. Photographers are always droning on about leading lines. So after nearly 70 years of picture taking I finally got a leading line. So proud of myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am linking with <a href=\"https:\/\/skyley.blogspot.com\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/skyley.blogspot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Skywatch Friday<\/strong><\/a> and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/myworldthrumycameralens.blogspot.com\/2024\/09\/my-corner-of-world_01581457100.html\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/myworldthrumycameralens.blogspot.com\/2024\/09\/my-corner-of-world_01581457100.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">My Corner of the World<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wednesday night was the Full Harvest Moon in Tulsa.
