A roof with a view
To keep up with a daily post I may just post a picture and let you discuss what you see.
The other afternoon I liked the contrast of the dark clouds against the sun hitting the buildings.

Beauty, the skyline of St. Louis is sheer beauty. Portents of things to come!!!
I've never noticed the red YMCA sign before. Cool shot.
The YMCA sign is one of my favorite things about the view!
Nice one. I have stumbled and twittered this for my friends. Others no doubt will like it like I did.
I don't comment often but that is beautiful sight!
