Skywatch Friday - Local Color

Sweetie and I attended the Tulsa Home and Garden Show last weekend at the County Fairgrounds. We got there at dusk so I snapped a photograph of the sunset.

It includes the Golden Driller. A Tulsa landmark for 40 years honoring the Oil Industry.

For photographs of the sky from all over the world check out Skywatch Friday.
