No one has ever posted a photo of the city from the 288/Airport Boulevard overpass? That's a spectacular shot any time of day.

Was this view part of work or pleasure? Would love to see this in person.

Both. The first two were at the grand opening of Main Place and the last one was just from the Orange Garage at the Galleria.

After living on the east coast for 6 months now, I have to say Houston is really boring to take photos of. Sorry if that sounds harsh.

Cool story bro? Thanks for sharing?

photoLith Sep 15, 2013 1:40 AM

Dont get me wrong, Houston has lots of stuff to photograph but after living there most of my life, you kinda run out of things to photograph. I moved up here to Pittsburgh because theres so much to photograph, so much history, and beautiful scenery everywhere. Its not Houstons fault for not having history. Dont forget that Ive photographed the shit out of Houston, Im just saying after a while you kinda run out of things to photograph but heres some I took the last couple of months before I moved.

My only reaction would be "so what"? That's not meant to detract from the fact that you're the forum's best photographer by far.

Last I heard Pittsburgh is in western PA, 300 miles from the "east coast". You are closer to Cleveland, Detroit, Buffalo, and Columbus than you are to eastern coastal cities. There is a mountain range between you and the east coast. You took nice pictures of Houston once upon a time. Maybe you just ran out of inspiration.

I'm sure for Photlith it is boring to take pictures of because he wants everything to be old.

New flash! Some of us enjoy post modern.
