Pittsburgh at Dawn

[nightbreedorphan]

I recently purchased my first DSLR (Nikon D5000) and have been devouring the information on DPS.

This is my first landscape photo using what I have learned from this website. It is a photo of my hometown of Pittsburgh from the West End-Elliot Overlook.

Excellent! I go to the university of pittsburgh. I've been dieing to lug myself up to the incline during sunrise with my camera. I've been there once early morning, but equipmentless! Great shot! I'd like to see any other Pittsburgh shots you may have. Send me a PM.





Here's one of the Cathedral of Learning on my campus.

I like that shot of the Cathedral of Learning. I've never seen it shot from behind the fountain before.

Stunning photo! I love Pittsburgh, especially the view from the overlook - although I've never witnessed it like this before!
