Outstanding work here, Renee! You had me tricked for a few moments, as to where you captured this scene from.
I like the trail left by the ferry lights, did you plan this, or did it 'just happen'? #2935944

Vickie Skellenger July 21, 2006

You have some outstanding cityscapes! This caught my eye because of the great focal length of the wrought iron and the city in the distance!

I love your shots! #3061331
