Description
For this shot I made the 160 mile drive from West Houston and pulled over at Lady Bird Lake to capture one scene that is part of this gallery: http://fineartamerica.com/featured/austin-skyline-from-the-longs-center-for-the-performing-arts-silvio-ligutti.html. After that I had to sit in traffic to arrive at the final destination, which caused me to miss the actual sunset. Not to worry, as beauty can be found even after sundown. I had a vision in my mind of a wide angle view, but more focused on the architecture rather than on the surrounding hills and water landscapes...November is actually a great time to do this as all this can be captured in one frame thanks to the position of the Sun going down on the horizon at a Southwest angle. It would not be possible if it would've been Summer...
Thanks for looking.

Beautiful image and angle, Silvio! One of my favorite stops when I'm in Austin! The friend that I stay with there lives about 5 minutes from this spot! Can't beat it for dinner and great sunsets! :-)
