Minneapolis (as seen from Lake of the Isles)

[buzzsaw]

I was out last night with a few friends and got a few shots of Mpls from the west side of Lake of the Isles.

Prior to nightfall.

Slightly after nightfall.

I guess a little variety is good, right?

Then I did the old zoom out trick on a long exposure... kinda different.

Nice work Mike, I like that zoom shot!

Great zoom technique, Mr. Buzz.

Seriously, nice image. Lots of drama, movement and abstraction.

Great skyline! I lived just west of Lake of the Isles for a couple of years and I don't remember seeing anything like that!

[Steve Foss]

Yeah, but Ken, wasn't that back in the 50s?

[finnbay]

At least - I'm not sure the Foshay was even up then!

See, look at the respect I get now... one lil' Mrs. slip and I have a new Mr. in front of Buzzy.

Thanks for looking.... the 50's was quite a while ago eh?

[Steve Foss]

You only got a Mr. because I wanted to cement the fact that the Mrs. was a mistake. You're back to buzz now. But hey, it's better than buzzard!

[buzzsaw]

Dang! Oh well, Ive been called worse.

[Steve Foss]

Me too, my friend, me too.
