Once again I missed publishing my post do tonight your getting another double dose.
This one was from my trip to Mt. Washington. I really like the light steams that are made from the cars on the roadways. They just seem to give the city a little more life.
What do you think?
The payment for me has always been in the doing. I didn’t get into [photography] for a job. – Michael Zagaris

Tonight’s photo is a shot from atop Mt. Washington overlooking the beautiful city of Pittsburgh, Pa. I’ve shot from here dozens of times but every time I am amazed at the view of the city. It’s really an amazing place to watch the city transform from daylight, to evening, and then night. It’s as if the city takes on a completely different personality when the sun drops and the lights come on.
I call this photo Night Helicopter as the streak of light on the right side was a helicopter flying by headed towards Oakland.
Yesterday I came home and started to upload the photos that I took for my 365 project, sat down on the couch and woke up this morning at 6:38am. Needles to say I missed adding my photo for yesterday. So tonight I’m going to post both yesterday and todays photos.
This photo was shot just as the sun was going down over the city. What caught my eye was the way the sunset reflected off of the building.

One of these days, I’m going to publish a book of all the pictures I did not take. It is going to be a huge hit. – Rene Burri
As a rule I don’t talk about religion and politics. I have found that these two subjects often lead to the end of a friendship or at least one person going away mad. So tonight’s photo does not express my thoughts on the subject it is merely something I saw on the street.
Choice?

If your ever in downtown Pittsburgh I recommend Mike and Tony’s Gyros. Just don’t spend a lot of time looking around inside true place LOL. The food is excellent and priced reasonably.
The guy in this photo didn’t seem to like the idea of having his photo taken but I just liked the expression on his face, which seems to depict his feelings about me taking the photo.
Have you found a particular way that seems to work when doing street photography that allows you to get the shot and not have problems with the people in the photo? I’m open to any suggestions.
