Ok..I know this may be asking for a LOT, but...

I was in Philly this past weekend and while we were lost on the dark streets in a rainstorm we happened upon City Hall and I was just struck in AWE at this amazing building. We were late, lost, running out of gas and it was pouring. I did not have the opportunity to go back and get the millions of pictures of this building that I wanted.

IF anyone is so inclined. I would LOVE to see some well shot pictures of City Hall. I saw it at night and I can't find any 'head on' pictures of it taken at night from a normal height (not from a hotel window, etc). This might require standing in the middle of the street - I can't remember what all was around it, so I understand if that particular shot isn't possible.

I would like to get a print of it made (would be happy to buy it from your gallery) and would like the full size digital file - I'm more than happy to pay a reasonable fee for this.

PLEASE let me know if you're interested! You can PM me here, but I'm more likely to get the message at sonya@thejohnstons.us

Thank you SO much!

Robert - that one you have of the North Facade is beautiful!

Here's the kind of picture I'm looking for. I know it will be awfully 'postcardy' but I'm trying to capture the feeling I had as we were driving down the road and the building was looming in front of us, absolutely larger than life.

This one is good, but cuts off the bottom of the building. And, of course, it isn't at night:

If this one were simply a better photograph, it'd be good too:

I *think* I want it in color. I'm not sure. But I loved all the different colors of stone and paint on the building.
