You have my buddy Brickell of the Miami forums to thank for this thread. He is the one who suggested I create a photos thread here after I created QuantumPX on SkyscraperCity. Friday's shoot from the top of the Bank of America tower in downtown Miami represents the pinnacle of my newfound hobby and possible semi-professional career. The wide-angle shot of the Brickell Financial District from BOA's roof is now my favorite wallpaper without question. No more conflicts there.
I actually just started this last month after not owning a camera in 25 years, but as I said earlier, I've studied skyscraper architecture and history as a hobby for over 30 years. I've seen enough postcards and picture books to have an idea of how I want to capture Miami. The only thing left for me to do now as far as I can see is the ultralight tour without the rainstorm. Then, we have to wait for more skyline. I've captured every angle, view, and vista in this city I've wanted to capture.
Brickell, if you have any favorites of mine that I haven't put on the thread, feel free to post them here. I still want to get bifocal sunglasses so I can actually see what I'm photographing while I'm photographing it because I'm farsighted, need reading glasses and can't actually see fine detail on the display when I'm snapping a photo.
