Powerful Sights

Day 6 of the 30 day challenge is “from a low angle.” This is a shot from the rooftop Ferris wheel at the City Museum in St. Louis, MO. The building is about 11 stories tall and the Ferris wheel adds about another two stories once you’re at the top. It’s a great way to see a bird’s eye view of the city sky line. My only disappointment was that there were two taller buildings blocking the view the Arch.




Last year's low angle:

 A view of the confluence point of the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers. People who've never seen either of these rivers don't fully comprehend the power of each river. They are very strong, fast flowing bodies of water and at the point where the start merging (it's a couple miles before they are actually completely merged) you can feel the strength and power that both of these bodies of water emit. Both rivers are amazing to see, but at this point it's not just a visual experience.
