High rise

This 225 South Sixth is actually the tallest building in Miinneapolis, Minnesota. It is slightly tallker than the well known IDS Center which locates some 5-6 blocks away. The 225 South Sixth has had various of official names in the past years, and also some good nicknames such as "Halo" and "Stanley Cup Tower".

Stone Arch Bridge

I took this picture on Sunday after the second storm of 2007 hit Twin Cities. Snow fell heavily from Wednesday night to Saturday morning. Sunday was much better day with clear blue sky, warmer temperature, and bunch of snow covering the ground.

This spot near Stone Arch Bridge is quite popular among Twin Cities photographers. There are plenty of great pictures taken from this particular angle. It is easily accessible from Saint Anthony Main in SE Minneapolis. A short hike down the steps leads to river bank an this nice view of Stone Arch Bridge and Minneapolis skyline.

For this picture, I use circular polarizer to enhance the sky color and make the bridge color more saturated. Then I did level adjustment in Photoshop in order to make the snow-covered river looks as white as it actually is.

Snow day

We got plenty of snow in Minneapolis over the last 8 days. Total accumulation ranged from 20-30 inches.

About this picture, I shot from MCTC skyway over Hennepin Avenue looking north, then applied Lomo script later in Photoshop.
