Skyline


Standing in front of the US Airways Arena in downtown Phoenix and looking northwest at the "blue" hour.  I was headed to a Phoenix Suns game when I took this shot and I didn't have a tripod with me.  There was a railing running along the street to separate the sidewalk from the light rail tracks, so I balanced the camera on the rail.  It turned out pretty good.

Yes indeed. Quite a view, perfect timing for the light. I hope the Suns won that night!

I wonder how long there will be a surface parking lot in the middle of downtown. In the future there may be another high rise in the middle of a photo from this spot.

What a very pretty blue door in last post, I hope it does lead to a garden full of colourful blooms!
