Ahh … digital cameras! They provide a great way to spend an afternoon … though it may not be so good to take pics on the interstates while driving, as most of the following were … hence some are not as “sharp” as I’d like.

Anyway, here are 11 pics of the downtown skyline taken on 8/16/2006. The map below shows the relative vantage point of each image. Enjoy!
