Sunshine

I know that I've probably scared some of you off, but I didn't mean too. Not all walking in Milwaukee ends in a creepy man following you. Sometimes it can become actually fun.

On my first day of getting sound, I was walking around when my headphones picked up this bell noise. As I was walking closer to it, I realized that it was the bridge to rises up when boats needed to pass. As soon as I realized it was that, I just started running as fast as my legs could carry me. ( I may have two blocks but those two blocks were one of the longest two blocks that I've ever had to run.) Once I got there, I could hear the bells as they rung over and over. The thing is that as soon as I got closer to them, I realized that the bells were ringing different things. One bell was ringing non-stop while the other one was ringing like a fire truck. I actually got excited because I was able to capture that and the cars starting up. I felt pretty proud of myself for getting that.

My second day of my picture taking, I was gazing at the bridge on Water St. and St. Paul and I was angry. I don't know what I was angry about, oh wait. Now I remember. The creepy man. So I was on this bridge, and I was just thinking about how I attract certain people when I looked up and saw this sunset. The sun was slowly dropping into the trees and I could see the rays play with the sky and the clouds. Instead of just light blue, I saw violet, orange and white. I was all alone and I could see the sun shining like it did when I was in Hawaii once. And I started to feel better, because I could hear the sound of the water below the bridge and see the brightness. And I loved that day and the pictures I took of that sunset.
