Landscapes

Duquesne University, Pittsburgh

I liked this photo for the linear perspective of the fountain and the vivid and varying colors throughout the photo.  I also think this is one of the most picturesque and beautiful places around the city.

Overlooking the Liberty Bridge, Pittsburgh

I selected this photo for the stark contrast of the lust greenery against the industrious background.  The ivy overgrowing the iron fence gives the impression of a fresh vitality to an old steel town.

Overlooking the Monongahela River, Pittsburgh

I selected this photo for the visual interest that the bridge creates; spanning the river below, the eye follows the yellow bridge across the river to the opposing shoreline and allows the viewer to take in more of the captured scenery.  Although the sky came out over-exposed, my eye is personally drawn down to the river and the city and not so much the bland sky.



Miscellaneous...
 North Huntingdon, Pennsylvania

I particularly like the way the sun is coming through the branches of the tree.  Although the sky is a little light and may be slightly over-exposed, this is one of my all-time favorite landscapes.
