Pittsburgh at night - a photo on Flickriver

            I was in Pittsburgh for one short night and wanted to duplicate many photos I had seen with the city reflecting on the Allegheny River.

Searching on Google, I settled on Emerald View Park as the right spot. I got there around 10 PM and quickly realized it wasn't the view I wanted. The river was barely visible. Furthermore, it was super dark and very creepy. There was nary another soul around. I quickly took many shots in quick succession without setting up the tripod and got out of there as quickly as possible.

This is a 9 exposure mean stacked in Photoshop. Considering the high ISO and low shutter speed, the result is actually quite acceptable.

Thank you very much for the faves, comments and views.
