Description
Evening at Pittsburgh by Delilah Downs.
The city of Pittsburgh Pennsylvania glows in the evening under a warm August sky, with clouds emblazoned by the setting sun, which paints them in yellow and orange and blue. The cityscape stands strong in the wake of building storms, secure as it sits surrounded by its landmark yellow bridges which traverse the three rivers embracing the heart of the city.
American architecture and skylines are beautiful, but seem to be especially so in the evening during twilight and dusk. Nowhere is this more true than where the Allegheny River and the Monongahela River meets up with the Ohio River.

Wonderful shot. I habe got to get up there some day soon!
Delilah Downs replied:
Thank you, Joseph. And go in the summer! I've been visiting PA (my hubby's homeland) for years, but it was always in the winter or fall. This year was our first summer visit, and I was astounded by the difference.

Living in Pittsburgh, I never get tired of experiencing the Point in various light. Great use of light/shadow, and color. f/l
Delilah Downs replied:
Thank you, Digital Photographic Arts! I'm actually pretty unfamiliar with Pittsburgh, but my husband is from the area (Blairsville, PA) and we were visiting. It was the first time I had been in PA during summer months--I never realized before how pretty it could be!

Thanks, Diane! I was actually eating a fantastic meal while this scene unfolded. ;)
