Early Morning Skyline

Last Thursday, I had an early meeting, and decided to wake up a bit earlier and take some shots of the Columbus skyline in the pre-dawn morning.  I’d been meaning for some time to try some shots from this vantage point, which is up near a bridge over the highway, to get some trails of the highway traffic leading into the city.  So I arrived around 5:30 AM, as the first light of the day was starting to turn the sky purple, set up my camera and tripod and framed a few shots.  I ended up rather pleased with the results, though it made me wish I could construct a 100 foot tower on the spot to get an even better vantage point.  Click to enlarge the images.
