This is my favorite view of the City of Philadelphia. It can be seen from the road that runs along the Schuylkill River near Boathouse Row.

We are looking at the Museum of Art, which sits on a rocky bluff called "Fair Mount" in the top center of the photo. The famous scene where Rocky Balboa trains for his big fight was shot on the steps of the museum.

Off to the right in the distance is the tallest building in the city, the Comcast Building. Everything else visible belongs to the historic Water Works. The water wheels once turned on the spots that now look like sets of eyes and frowns.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
You learn by doing. Take your next online photography class.
