Sunset and Thunderstorm - Pittsburgh Pennsylvania
A thunderstorm moved through the area tonight. From downtown the clouds were really wonderful with the sunset yellow and oranges and on the other side of the thunderclouds, a deep blue. Add in the Incline and the Gateway Clipper and the Point Fountain and I think this is just about the perfect photo of downtown.
Rt28: Road of Nightmares - Pittsburgh Pennsylvania
Rt 28 is one of the major roads in Pittsburgh that everyone loves to hate. The traffic can be horrendous during the week. Typically at the times I travel on it the traffic isn't too bad.

Nearly Full Moon Rising over Pittsburgh
The moon was rising above Pittsburgh on a cool October evening. Being in the right place at the right time is not luck, it's a lot of planning, patience, and persistence.

Roberto Clemente Bridge near Sunset - Pittsburgh Pennsylvania
With the baseball game just underway, the Roberto Clemente Bridge was still closed to traffic. I've always wanted to get this shot.

Duquesne University in Late Summer- Pittsburgh Pennsylvania
I haven't had a chance to do too much on the campus of Duquesne University and that's a shame because I think there are some really neat views of both the city and the campus itself.

Pirates Win in the 9th.
The end of the game was fantastic. They came back to win it in the bottom of the 9th against the Reds. Also, it was a fireworks night and that is always fun.

The Experiment: Pittsburgh Pennsylvania
I debated if I should even post this one. This is a complete experiment and i'm not sure how well it worked. I'll let yinz tell me.
A full moon is incredibly bright compared to everything else at night (or deep into dusk). So in order to get both the details of the buildings as well as the details of the moon, I had to get really creative on how I did the exposures. This was done with four images taken a fractions of a second apart (otherwise the moon would have drifted and caused real problems) and ... and I'm not sure I like it.moonPPG PlacePPGKDKAsatellite dishgateway centerPittsburghdowntowngolden triangle

The Court, The Bank, and the Corporation - Pittsburgh Pennsylvania
I absolutely love the foreshortening effect that can be accomplished with the long telephoto lens.
There is a lot one could say about this image and what it means. The court building made of stone on the left. The Bank and it's smooth exterior made of concrete and glass and behind it all is the imposing structure of steel of the (depending on how long you've been in Pittsburgh) of US Steel or UPMC.CourtAlleghenyBNY MellonUS SteelUPMCArchitectureCitySkyscraperstructureorangestoneglassconcrete
