I love all your pictures.

But I also like the ones PHX 602 took and HX Guy with all of the cranes. It shows how much Phoenix is growing.

Here are a few of mine from last September, include some from the Phoenix funhouse series. Also, a few interesting views that we won't see again.

I came across another cool older pic of Phx. I believe this one was taken circa 1972. You can see the Chase Tower under construction in the lower left hand corner.

wow, thx Phxrising, that picture is sweet.

Took me a minute to realize that is south mountain in the background (I'm smashed ATM) but great pix none the less.

I've been photographing Phoenix since 89 or 90 (though I didn't live there again till I started at ASU in 94) and have hundreds of photos in shoeboxes. Most of them are bad shots by a 15 year old (and so on), but still....somewhere I think I've even got construction photos of the Scottsdale Galleria! Most of the analog stuff isn't so good (or at least it's scanned poorly) and most of the digital stuff was taken by the top of the line 2MP camera circa 1999 (borrowed from my job in most instances).

It occurred to me the other day that I actually hadn't done really ANY photographing of the city since 2002! That will change next month.

Nonetheless, here's a sampling of my favorite shots over the past 18 years or so (one of these days I've got to have my negatives scanned!)...enjoy them:

/\ The 4th from the top has always been a fave of mine, and the 4th from the bottom is a great shot!

Always found Phoenix a fascinating place to visit and photograph. Just something about it. All my stock stuff:











Hopefully will make it out in Winter again this year.

Here are a few photos I that I believe are the best of Phoenix and Tempe. All were taken by me, and a few were from our forum meets in the past. Enjoy.
