Red White and Blue - Stoughton Opera House clock tower
This is a somewhat long-exposure image, causing blurring the clouds which were passing overhead on a windy day, viewing the iconic clock tower of the Stoughton (WI) Opera House viewed from the east. This building was built in 1901, fell in to disrepair and ruin in ~1950, and was repaired and rebuilt in the 1980's. In its early days, the theater's repertoire primarily featured plays, vaudeville reviews by traveling companies, and concerts. Since reopening, events include (primarily) music concerts by well-known national and local touring musicians and bands. I attended a Herb Alpert concert here about 5 years ago which was pretty cool - as a trumpet player myself, Herb is a bit of an idol, and even at age ~82, he still had GREAT chops!! I just googled and he is STILL touring now at age 87. Wow!

I have many images of this iconic building in my gallery - just search "clock" on my gallery to see them all!

Many of his images were encountered while riding motorcycle down random backroads during "golden hour", searching for that magic light...
