Warehouse District Minneapolis (part II)

crystalview · Mar 7, 2005

Well, I made it downtown again. It was the best day of the winter by far. 60 degrees in early March.....very nice! I shot all of these around 1:00 pm, so the sun was shining bright. Good for me, not the best for taking photos. Oh well, it was nice just being out. Here are a couple, the rest are on my smugmug link below. Comments and suggestions welcome.

Thanks very much. Had to maneuver around a bit with the sun nearly directly above. Thanks again.

Well, the weather was short-lived. Its now 19 degrees as we speak. back to reality for a little bit. As you probably know from living here, we always seem to get a little tease of spring weather, then back to snow and frigid!

Thanks again!

More comments always welcome.

I really like these. The first one amazes me. I wonder the stories behind these buildings ,and if they could talk, the tales they must have.
Very cool shots.
