Pictured here are a cluster of buildings in downtown Pittsburgh late in the afternoon. I like the way the sun really punches up the contrast between the light and dark sides of the buildings, and the sheen across the USX Tower. The octagonal shape of the buildings at One Oxford Centre are more prominent because of the way the sun is highlighting the short edges of the columns.

I take plenty of panoramas on days like this, but sometimes it is more interesting to show smaller clusters of the city instead of trying to show you the entire thing in a single shot.
