Skywatch Friday
A place to enjoy skies and views from all around the globe. Skywatch is only as good as the people who post here. It is a "not for profit, not for awards" fun place to post and link from. Simply take a picture which includes the Sky, post that picture on your blog and then come here and put your preferred name and link in the relevant places. Try to visit others on the links, those at the beginning and the end.

Skywatch Friday - 3 October 2024 Edition
Downtown Tulsa from my old office, complete with internal reflection. I took this photo ten years ago and have never used for it anything so here it is. Lots of my photos have imperfections like the reflection but hey I am not a photographer, I'm a picture taker.
I took the photo in 2014. Below is a similar photo taken in 1929. It is a US Navy Dirigible, the USS Los Angeles flying over Tulsa. A popular urban legend in Tulsa is that the buidling to the left was designed to be a dirigible docking station. However there is no evidence to support that. I find it remarkable though that almost all the buildings in the 1929 photo are still standing and being used.
