Posting some of the pictures taken by me over the past few months. Hopefully forumers here will like them as most family members don't understand why I "waste" my photos on skyslines, buildings and such things.

It's refreshing to see South Florida on here for a change. :yes:

Good shots! :)

[bobdreamz]

[Grego43]

Nice Shots.

[denveraztec]

Nice to see the buildings up close and that the do have character. Some of the skyline shots make them seem boxy. Wonderful photos!

Nice weather.

Ahh Miami.....looks great. Nice shots, I got a chance to go up to the penthouse of the Blue Diamond, very cool.....

Interesting story on those twin towers; the Blue and Green Diamonds were supposed to have blue and green glass respectively, but they found that the green glass was attracting sea turtles that were getting beached. Subsequently the glass for both towers are blue.

[Top Of The Park]

Nice!

Its hard to believe how much Miami's skyline has changed in like 3 or 4 years.
