With some of you emailing me, wanting to know when I was going to publish these photos from last night, I knew I couldn’t procrastinate much longer especially with a contest at stake.  I took about 150 photos last evening and had the special privilege to meet up with an acquaintance of mine that was able to get us special access to a certain rooftop for some amazing views that I will never forget.  Aaron, thanks again!  I also want to thank the security guard that escorted us, he went above and beyond.  What can I say, I love this city!  After photographing hundreds of cities around the world, very few cities give me as much pleasure and gratification as Cincinnati. There are so many options and when an event like this happens, it becomes a strategy on which ones we are going to tackle during the evening.  Some are a little risky and include trespassing but luckily if any of that happened last night (pleading the 5th), we didn’t encounter any problems.  If some of you are not familiar with “Light Up Cincinnati”, you can click on the link and read more about it.  It is a yearly event that gets very little coverage in the media and is always a last minute announcement that you have to adjust your personal schedule for, unfortunately last year I was out of town for it.  Luckily for me, it happened right in between two of my business trips.  You can view the “Light Up Cincinnati” gallery here or if you would like you can view them all in a complete thread here.
