The city can be a scary place for some but from the right perspective it can also be magnificent. I have the great fortune to live near a city that has a most beautiful skyline and last night the weather was warm and the rivers were calm, so I just had to take a little time and take a few photos. Now, the city I live near is settled just below Mt. Washington which allows for a unique view from above the city, which really makes for some great photos of the skyline. The city I’m referring to is none other than Pittsburgh, Pa. If you haven’t had the opportunity to visit I would recommend taking the time to stop by. While your there stop on Mt. Washington and take in the view of the city, oh and by the way you have to stop by Primanti Brothers for one of their world famous sandwiches.

I hope you enjoy the views from Mt. Washington as much as I do.

Sometimes its fun to photograph things from a different perspective. Tonight I took a photo of a street in Pittsburgh with a different view.

A few days ago I photographed a car at the car wash at night, so today I thought that I would show you the view through the windshield during the car wash.

Tonight we explore the interesting task of driving at night through timed photographs in light traffic. It’s really cool what you can get with a slightly longer exposure and the movement of the cars. Hope you enjoy these interesting results.

Well we all know that during this time of the year in Southwestern Pa it snows and the state salts the road. The of course as soon as the sun comes out everybody runs to the car wash. So todays photo is a tribute to the time spent waiting in line to get that car cleaned up just to drive down the road through the water from the melting snow. It’s a never ending cycle here in the Northeast part of the U.S. #2eightphotography

Since we visited one of the soon to be gone retail giants in my last post I thought it only appropriate that we visit the opposite. Can you see the difference? Customers…

Once a giant, but now… not so much. What do you think is bringing down all these giants of retail?

An empty parking lot which was once full.

A few days ago I showed some pictures of the soon to be razed Saks Fifth Avenue in Pittsburgh. So today, I thought I would show a few more pictures as an update to the progress.

Today we take a simple look at perspective. Sometimes we just simply need to look up. #2eightphotography

Today we take a quick look at another building that is being razed in downtown Pittsburgh. The interesting part of about these buildings is the way in which they are being torn down. But first just a little back story. The building have been empty for several years and have been purchased by Point Park University. The school has decided to tear them down to make way for their new state of the art play house. Now for the interesting part. The facades of each of these building is being taken down brick by brick for the purpose of erecting them as part of the new building, thus preserving the most historic parts of the building. And luckily, I work right across the street from this project and can watch the progress daily. #2eightphotography
