I'd like to know what camera he used for that. Looks like a pretty expensive one.

Compared to Europe, America represented upward mobility. Read tocqueville, the whole premise of that book is that America was way more free then in Europe. Just because you think america is this mean "poor from birth to death" doesn't mean it fits the historic narrative. I can't speak of the last...60 years or so. But in American history, it is very much so true America offered more opportunity than in Europe for average people. Period. |

"The masses flocked to the New World," as he phrased it, for many reasons. Economic opportunity was one reason. Other reasons were to escape from religious, political, and social persecution and escape from the negative effects of war, famine and pestilence. The idea that all who eventually populated North and South America moved here only to own a single-family house is obviously false. |
Anyway, more skyline!

Guys, conversations like this are what turned me off to this website. I only came back here to keep my photo contribution going because I think it helps the city to grow if my capture can create more interest in Miami. It certainly was not to get involved in discussions such as these.

Really good picture! I like the building with the roof bridge with the circular hole. Wouldn't work in every city/setting but it's fun here.
