I have a habit of occasionally skipping my meds and not going to bed at all. Though now I don't do it as often fortunately.

Those pictures make me nervous. It reminds me of staying up late, studying for finals, or making my final projects, and knowing I have to still sleep, and being class in 3 hours.

Nice work! I think this is my favorite of all your photo threads Eric!

I like how it starts out of the night and ends at day light.

Nice eye. I'd have to disagree with kcgrid though and say that my favorite threads of yours are the ones with people in them.

BTW, KC's Garment District in the early 1900s was claimed to be the second largest garment district in the US. Supposedly 1/7 womens apparel was made there. Lee Jeans started there.

BTW, this is a (still active) Folgers coffee plant, that opened around 1930. Highly automated now, under two dozen people run the place. Which may explain why it tastes manufactured. Then again, so does burnt up Starbucks these days.

Not a fan of their coffee, but I do enjoy the way it makes that area smell.

Great photos.
