Peering out from a rooftop over the empty Dillon buildings in the Warehouse District, you can see a more closeup view that is similar to the very familiar Boylan Bridge perspective.

Awesome shot! Anybody can take a photo of the Raleigh skyline from the Boylan Ave bridge. But only John Morris can capture the view from such an arcane vantage point as this.

I truly love photos of cityscapes and citylights. This would make a great poster.

Matt, NCSU, and RB – thanks for the compliments on this one. It was the last one I got from my camera before it died. Glad it was a good one!
