I have heard that Pittsburgh has less sunny days than Seattle. Everyone thinks that Seattle is pretty gloomy, where would it put Pittsburgh then? We were driving through Pittsburgh and I really wanted to get a shot of it. As you can guess, it was rainy and gloomy and not very pleasant outside. Also, it was right around midnight too. But if one wants to get a photo, one should get a photo, no matter what the outside conditions are out there, right?
So here you go, the first photo from that night. This one is definitely better viewed in higher resolution.
Great photo! I think Pittsburgh gets a bum rap. It’s really a lovely city, and that view when you emerge from the tunnel, especially at night, is magnificent. Where were you when you shot this?
Thanks! We were at the top of the mountain near the sculpture – two people, not sure who they are, was too dark and rainy to pay attention to it.
With the conditions you were working under, this is a beautiful shot. I think the haze actually adds to the appeal of the photo. Nice job!
Thanks! I had big umbrella covering camera from rain, was quite a scene for anyone watching me. 🙂
What an amazing shot… Well done!
I am from Pittsburgh and I think you did a great job capturing the city lights. It looks like you were on top of Mount Washington looking down. Fabulous picture!
Thanks. I was hoping that the stadiums on the left would have some lights as well, but at midnight it was a wishful thinking.
Excellent shot, I’m from Pittsburgh and always love seeing this view of the city.
Wow! All your work is incredible!
Wow! What a great shot! I am going to try to do something similar in Brussels 🙂
Brussels is a nice place for photography. I wish I was more serious about it when I visited there few years back.
Beautiful!
Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!
Looks like a photo you’d see in a magazine….or framed on the wall of the Pittsburgh Chamber of Commerce! Well done, Dimitrii.
Thanks Maggie! They should do it, I agree with you!
I admire your will… I find myself really lazy in crappy weather, shame on me 🙁
Oh great photo by the way 🙂
I know, it is a bit nuts, but getting those photos in different places is not an easy task, so have to take advantage of opportunities whenever I have one, which does not happen to often.
A beautiful night shot. I would have been too lazy to get a photo under these circumstances. 😉
Love it! 🙂
thanks! good luck with your master studies!
A very cool and arty photo! Ann ( Something that you would like to have upon your wall):)))
I like the detail in the christmas tree by the waterside 😀
You always take me to a place I wanted to be… I somehow feel like I’ve been there 🙂
Woohoo!! Great shot!
Really nice.
What we won’t do for a photo. The gloomy weather actually adds to the surreal quality of this image. Excellent work.
Reblogged this on Ann Novek–With the Sky as the Ceiling and the Heart Outdoors.
Beautiful shot! Pittsburgh is a fun town 🙂
Stunning night scene.
Perfect exposure, and great details on the photo.
Nicely done!
I’ve never been. Now I’ve GOT to go! Stunning view of the city!
Pittsburgh is a cool city to visit. Make sure to visit university and Carnegy Melon. Your kid might decide to go there one day.

Beautiful shot of my city. This photo was taken on Mt Washington, a great tourist site to see the city. The statue you were near was the one of George Washington and the Seneca leader Guyasuta. http://francineinretirement.files.wordpress.com/2012/08/img_1516aaa.jpg
Thanks for sharing our city.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
