With this image, I begin a new series, the 2008 memorial day weekend road trip, which began in Reno, Nevada some 3 hours drive from the bay area.
Picture shows dusk falling over the Reno arch.
Go and visit the Sky Watch page and enjoy all the marvelous sky photos of other participants.

Love the busy atmosphere here Maria.
Nicely composed.
Beautiful photo. I lived in Las Vegas for 12 years but never ventured up to Reno.
Take care and thanks for sharing your sky with us!!
Beautiful interesting picture!
Light is funny, as I look at your picture it could be between 10.00am and 11.00am here.
Lovely picture Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful photo!
Cool shot. Hmmm. I've never been to Reno!
Looks like a lively place!
PS It was a waste disposal furnace...
Nice contrast of a natural sky and the wild side of civilization.
Bright lights, little city! Kinda puts the sky to shame... Neat shot.
Exciting photo! Lots going on with neat stormy cloudy sky up above.
Isn't it wonderful that we share the sky with all the people in the world?! Thanks for sharing yours!
Wonderful urban photo. You had an eye for it, truly.
Have a nice weekend and I am looking forward to other photos from the series.
Wow; I've never been but with your photo I guess I don't need to - it's great! It looks busy and fun.
Wow. The depth of field in this makes it almost three-dimensional! Really jumps off the page.
Its so nice, the sky almost look like its part of buildings! Will wait for your new set!
(Thanks btw, I'm doing fine except for too many papers to file re: courses to take, hubby's work, kids' school :D hope you are doing well! Salamat!)
A fantastic shot, Maria! Love the perspective.
Manila was wonderful - as always. I can't wait for June!
Thanks for visiting Norwich Daily Photo and leaving your comments. Have a great first week in 2009!

Beautiful photo of the little city. looks like a great place to visit.
Cool shot, nice color in a nice city!
This is such a marvelous photo. I've never been to Reno. It looks like a very busy, rather gaudy sort of place.
Lots of interest in this picture. I hope to visit this area in the spring.
I love the way you shot this. Takes us right into Reno through the arch with a lovely sky above.
Nice lively scene and pretty sky!
This is a great shot! So many interesting highlights to the photo...
Happy SW to you!!
I'd love to experience this place. =) The one in the photo I mean. All the lights, the vivid reflections. Haha. I want to go here in the future. =)
Dusk is always a wonderful time of day. Nice shot.
That's a lovely photo of the Reno arch. Thanks for sharing it.
Cool image for skywatch.
Lovely photo for SWF. This little city looked very busy. I guess at night it would come very much alive.
That's a fun shot. I like how the lights are just starting to turn on and it's getting to be dusk. I haven't been to Reno in ages. Greetings from the Bay Area. Linnea
Thank you for stopping by & I'd like to say that your photo is quite nice too!
PC: Nice cature of a special city skyline.
Skywatch takes us so many new places each week - Thanks for a new view of Reno.
It will be interesting to follow your trip. This is a lively shot of a city I know only by name.
Beautiful and colourful!
Nice little city.
Hey, the view is beautiful. I think that's going to rain soon. :-)
Happy Friday!

Wow! what an eye catching sign!
Lovely capture Maria. Beautiful colours.
looks cloudy!
I like it because I never see so busy streets here.
I've been to Reno but had forgotten about that sign. Great combination of neon and clouds.
Very busy area!
Good you stopped to enjoy the sky!
Someday I'll get there. :)
Love the dusky sky and the composition of the photo.
Very fine and interesting view for Sky Watch.
Very beautiful photo indeed! Thank you for sharing this picture and thank you for your visit.
Beautiful pictures, great perspective
Beautiful perspective shot Maria. I like the colours!
I'll be looking forward to your new series ...
You're lucky for having the opportunity to travel around the world ... I'm envious ... :)
I love Reno's accessibility to the great outdoors, the mountains, and Lake Tahoe. A great little City.
BEAUTIFUL PHOTO!!

That looks like just plain fun! Or not so plain at all. Delightful!

Great shot with all the lights and colors of the city.
An exciting place I'm sure..similar to Vegas?
A city sky shot, nice.
There is plenty going on leading into that sky. I have never been there but hope to make it some day, good swf.
What a neat shot for SkyWatch ~ so glad you shared it!
You know, I have never been there... so full of life, that city. Exciting. I look forward to your series. :O)
Looks inviting!
Cool photo, lots of interesting things going on there.
Thanks for sharing the view of Reno with Sky Watch Friday and thanks for your kind comments on my post earlier.
I spent a few days in Reno for a project a few years ago. Nice little town and I liked some of the scenery around their. Much nicer than Las Vegas.
