Picture shot from Monongahela Incline
Picture shot from Fagan OverlookWhile on top of the Mount Washington, I waited long enough to watch the play of sun and the shadows it cast over Pittsburgh through the remainder of the evening. I am always fascinated about the profound interconnection between the Sun and the Earth.

but in having new eyes.
