If only there was more height along Meridian St., that would be an even better aerial shot of Indy. Indy actually doesn't look too bad from an aerial point of view, despite having a very condensed skyline that tapers out pretty quickly.

took this in august when i was in chicago as a giant storm system was approaching. Whilst everyone else was rushing home I ran up the Hancock and got there just in time to take this before the cloud wall hit the tower at 40 or so miles an hour, and a tornado warning forced us to be evacuated.

That picture is absolutely incredible. Amazing work, no doubt. Thanks for posting!!

This one doesn't really compare but hey, why not. It's Solomon Juneau, looking out over his third of the city:

Great shot, Matt. I was high up in Aon (75th floor) on the day of that insane storm. Unfortunately, we weren't supposed to go near the windows so I never got a good look at it. What an absolute monster. Thanks for sharing.

Mark, this is just awesome! The composition is perfect, especially with the pigeons!

Do you sell your photos?
