Blue hour at the Liberty Memorial
When I was in Kansas City on business, I had a free evening and so I camped out atop the Liberty Memorial and waited for sunset. The Liberty Memorial is a memorial to the fallen soliders of World War I and it is a beautiful structure - well, more like a group of structures. It sits high atop a hill, giving you a commanding view of downtown KC. If you look at my Kansas City shots, all the shots with the wide view of downtown were taken from up here. If you make it to KC, definitely stop by this spot. In this shot, I turned slightly away from downtown (which is out of frame to the right) and followed the setting sun as it departed. The skies were soft and the light was just right. It was a peaceful evening and I was surprised that I was the only photographer there. But hey, I wasn't complaining!
