For all the reasons I've already said, when I finally decided to buy a camera after 25 years to capture the new Miami skyline the way I wanted, I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted to do with it. It was just a matter of whether I could bring what was in my head out into the real world as far as making the city look the way I wanted it to look and that I was not seeing in other photographs. I've succeeded in capturing every view, vista, and angle of this city I wanted except the ones where I would need somebody to drive. Some took no small measure of athleticism considering they were taken from a moving train or boat and timing was everything. Sometimes, it takes a lot of walking back and forth on bridges to get the vantage point or a lot of dancing around a skyscraper to capture its full beauty, power, and scale. Don't wear office clothes when you do this for sure. Gym attire is recommended.
