Ellie had her first flute lesson at night last week. I didn’t have my better night camera (LX3) with me, but this photo came out OK anyway. For a similar view during the day see this prior blog entry.

The Ashland Springs Hotel (to the right) is shining brightest. I’ll post a close up and more detailed version of it from this same location in the next few days.

The streaks in the lower left portion of this picture are the drivers on I-5. I left the shutter open for 8 seconds and bumped the ISO up to 400.

This was my view this morning during Ellie’s flute lesson on the other side of town. Mt. Ashland is on the far left and the Ashland Springs Hotel is on the far right. A little more blue sky and I think the colors of fall foliage would have been more obvious.

Mt. Ashland has a bit of snow on the top which is a bit surprising considering it has been unseasonably warm for the past four or five days.

The sun was just going down when I took today’s pic. The only reason it looks so light is I left the shutter open for a full second. Unfortunately it was cloudy, so there was no sunset to view, and this would have been the perfect time and angle to see it as this is the normal sunset direction.

Today’s photo is looking down East Main Street towards downtown Ashland. Pasta Piatti, on the left, is a good restaurant. The Ashland Springs Hotel can be seen in the not-too-far distance on the right.

At last year’s 4th of July parade the Ashland Springs Hotel had a “Then and Now” wedding theme for their parade entry.

A different angle than I have previously shown you on the Ashland Springs Hotel.

The tallest building in town, the Ashland Springs Hotel (formerly known as the Mark Antony and before that as the Lithia Hotel) is moving into its 85th year. Tomorrow thousands will gather in front of or near the hotel from all over Oregon and Northern California to participate in Ashland’s Fourth of July festivities.
