What a shot!

It looks like they are on the transfer floor at Vista.

This is wonderful, great shot. Makes the city look impressive and serene at the same time.

Wow, if you took a photo exactly like this also including the loop and just a little bit South of the Sears tower I believe you could sell. It. Excellent photo.

If you can find the church located near the middle of the screen(just south of one OBP) try to imagine a 1000 ft. tower recently propposed across street!

It would probably just about hide Lake Point Tower.

OBP is hard to miss.

Joe, did the lens(es) you use come with your Nikon? And is there something particular you do when getting these far away aerial shots to make them look so clean?

Flickr shows you the EXIF data - Nikon D810, 24-70mm lens, purchased separately. Photos shot RAW (40+ meg each) and processed through Adobe Lightroom with varying degrees of correction. I'm not a pro at this, so someone with more talent in Lightroom or Photoshop could make the photos sharper / better. Weather wasn't as clear as it has been other times I've been up.

Looks like 17 floors to go after the one they're now pouring in that 10/15 photo. That's great, up up up! Essentially take the part after the setback, where the all blue starts, and double what's there now to get the final height.

Roger that. I play around quite a bit in photoshop. My camera is pushing 7 years old so it might be time to move to the next one and I was considering Nikon as a contender to the Rebels I usually buy. I hope to one day do an aerial shoot like yours.
