High above the Shadow Ridge

The name High Note was inspired by our love of music and flying. That’s why we couldn’t be more thrilled to be asked back to this annual show. We were greeted by great scenery; good background music and we couldn’t have asked for better weather.

Standing Bear Lake Renovation – June 2023

We’ve added some more photos of the progress being made on the lake renovations. These shots show south parking closed as well as part of the walking trail on the south side. Despite the dry weather, vegetation continues to grow in the lakebed. It’s exciting to see things coming along.

Standing Bear Lake Renovation – Apr 2023

We took to the skies this morning to check out the status of Standing Bear Lake. It’s sad to see it drained but we are looking forward to all the upgrades! Check back with us to keep a bird’s eye view of the project over the summer.

Festival of Lights

Downtown Omaha in December never disappoints. We went down to the Gene Leahy mall tonight to see the Holiday Lights Festival and decided to take some shots from the ground for a change.

We wanted to extend our best wishes to you and yours for a happy, healthy holiday season.

Fall Concert

It was a beautiful night for the Boomstock concert in Stinson Park. We were there and got a shot that spectacular sky.

Fireworks

We grabbed a few shots of the Memorial Park Fireworks in 2022.

Crepuscular Rays Over Omaha

Did you see that sunset in Omaha last night…Spectacular! I just happened to have a camera in the air and snapped a few shots. The evening thunderstorms scattered just the right concentration of clouds to create dramatic crepuscular rays. Let’s hear it for summer!
