No where as spectacular as the Golden Triangle in Pittsburgh but now that the new Main Street Bridge is lit up it's not too bad a scene.

  This is a beautiful city nightscape, Dave -- the spillway angle is perfectly positioned to frame that lovely clear reflection in the still waters above it. You've done a wonderful job with the exposure here. Making it a favorite.
