"Columbus Skyline" (2011)
This amazing view greets me daily on my way to work from Grandview. I was on my way home late in the evening last winter, on the day where the moon was closest to the Earth. Through my rear view mirror, and felt compelled to stop to take a photo. The way the moon gracefully hangs over the city, combined with the rainbow effect that the building lights had, made the sight simply too beautiful to ignore.
There isn’t much of a story behind this one particular image, as much as there is a story on my love affair with Columbus. I was born and raised here. I’ve spent most of my adult life in Columbus, even though I’ve done short stents in other cities and traveled extensively. No matter where I am, it’s never as good as Columbus. The music, food, arts, education, culture, business and other communities here combine to make a magnificent city. Columbus is the Goldie Locks of American cities… for me, at least.
