Here I tried using a less obvious technique to take people's pic. I just help the camera at waist level, aimed, and hoped like hell the shots would turn out.

It should be pretty obvious where we are.

Impressive spread! Omaha seems to be more vibrant during the day than other larger Midwestern cities.

The Woodmen building is very intriguing for some reason...

I've always liked Omaha... This is exactly how I would have photographed it. Nice work!

Thanks. I'm usually over in Midtown during the day at work so I don't get to see Downtown like this very much. It was nice.
