The horizontal angle of the sun here really gives the buildings a tangible quality. This is probably my favorite shot of the skyline.

If/when the Wallstreet tower finally gets built... the Omaha skyline will begin to really look like that of a 'big city'... with some highrise density finally emerging.

All cities look different from other angles. I've seen shots from the north or south that show more buildings (other than the typical shot that shows only 4) that really make downtown look bigger.

This one is pretty common from the Gene Leahy Mall.


It doesn't show much of downtown at all.
