Downtown Buffalo and Skyway at Sunrise

Downtown Buffalo and Skyway at Sunrise

There's a lot of Buffalo in this photo. Left to right, the Liberty Building, Main Place Tower, One HSBC Plaza, Rand Building (with the transmitter), Skyway (Route 5), and Buffalo River.

On an early morning sunrise shoot, this was the first photo. Just a few moments earlier, the sky was pitch black. As it lit up, it picked up the colors of the rising sun. Here, you're looking approximately north. To the right, the eastern sky was already a bit brighter. The artificial lights balanced nicely with the natural light. And the scene was changing fast! The sky was getting brighter rapidly eventually overpowering the scene and a bit of wind picked up and spoiled the mirror on the Buffalo River.
