Downtown Greensboro: View from the Baseball Stadium

This is one of the views from the Newbridge Bank Park as you leave the baseball stadium and head toward Eugene Street. Yes, Greensboro has tall buildings but in a city without much altitude change and no river views, skylines are hard to photograph. Eventually, we'll capture one to share. For now, two tall, flat buildings and a parking deck will have to suffice for seeing the northern end of downtown. The repeating rectangles do add some visual interest. The photo was taken at dusk as light was fleeting and shadows began to creep in, as seen on the right side of the photo.

Today, we're participating in the "My World" Tuesday theme day.

I like the light being reflected on the glass buildings. Good shot!

I'm glad you're having fun photoblogging! The minute this becomes a burden, I'm dropping it. What's the sense in that, right? :D

[Today's Blah...]

This is a very good photo, and the buildings are so impressive.

Thanks for sharing this part of your world. I like the way the light looks in the windows.

These are great shots of downtown Greensboro. Very interesting post. I haven't been downtown there in ages. I mostly pass by on the way to the mountains and sometimes stop and eat there. I'll have to make a point of seeing the changes sometime. About 12 years ago when my daughter was in middle school she went to a summer camp at UNCG which is the last time I visited to the university in Greensboro and I briefly went downtown when taking her there.

To answer your questions, Watery Wednesday, http://waterywednesday.blogspot.com/
is one of the Wednesday memes that I've been intrigued by. I think I'll stick with Wordless Wednesday since the whole point of Carver Cards was it was going to be my wordless blog although that's not always possible since I decided to to My world on that blog instead of on my other wordy blog.

I think you did a pretty good job of capturing skyline!

One of my most favorite views. I'll have to show my wee man-- "daddy's off-oo" is in that picture, and he delights in looking at it, driving by it, thinking about it...

Argghh... I wanted to tell you yesterday that I loved your "Hieland Coo" sooo much but couldn't post... As for today's post, I really don't know why I wasn't imagining any modern buildings in your pretty Greensboro!

I think you got a good picture of the downtown. The lighting is very good.

I would give the building on the right a C-. The building on the left would get a B+.

Well-lighted shot.
