"Place, with a trace of humanity" Photography/Photo of the Day/Pittsburgh

Valentine’s Eve Sky at Sunset

Just returned to Pittsburgh from Columbus and the light was leaving.  Saw the sunset begin so found a spot in the Strip on Smallman Street to pull over and get out and shoot the colors as they changed.  Thought to myself- a nice pair for today’s post and yesterday’s-the beginning of the day and the end of the day, both in the Strip.

UPMC reflected in the puddle with trucks parked not far away.
