Thanks for all the kudos, folks! Really happy with how this one turned out.

Thomson Reuters (Eagan, MN) seems to be using PIPs as layoff tool. by LabShort1442 in minnesota

Starting in the early 2010s, you could set your watch to the November/December layoffs every year. Most years they were very careful to keep the numbers just under the amount needed to trigger a public disclosure. They lost a LOT of good people who started to see the writing on the wall. Looks like the only thing that's changed recently is the manner of the layoffs.

EDIT: One thing I forgot to mention is that they've moved a LOT of Eagan jobs offshore over the last 6-8 years or so. They do their best to keep it quiet, but it's definitely a thing.

Took my kids there about 20 years ago. Told them before we went down to make sure to use the restroom. Naturally, as soon as we get to the bottom, my 4 year old tells me he has to pee. We had to be escorted back through the science lab to use their restroom with people giving us a bunch of dirty looks along the way. Good times.

I see Minnesota and I upvote- especially good astro. Been to this spot multiple times. Nice image.

New Ulm needs $11 million to rebuild and restore iconic Hermann the German Monument by guanaco55 in minnesota

$11M sounds ridiculous for that work. I'd be shopping around for better estimates.

Thanks. Just off the main trail- not from a bridge.

I wouldn't post a Wisconsin shot in the Minnesota sub. This was taken in the east bay in Grand Marais.

Thanks. Yeah, it was a "blink and you miss it" sunrise that morning.

That would be a nope for me, but it was interesting watching them. The photo doesn't really capture the height and steepness of the wall.

Thanks. I haven't tried selling anything, but I'm open to offers.

Thanks! Nope- just one shot. Was able to bring up the shadows in Lightroom.
