Philly city skyline

Out scouting locations today along the NJ side of the Delaware. I'm looking for locations for night shots, and this fishing pier/needle park in Camden might have possibilities. Now, to wait for a somewhat clearer night, and a bit warmer temps, and we'll see what happens...
Here's a day shot. Not a cloud in the sky.

Thanks - here are a couple more from the trip. It was too nice a day to just sit around the house, but with no clouds in the sky it made everything kind of boring.

If you are going to shoot in Camden at night, on the waterfront, take a gun along with your camera. You will get to shoot both.

Looks like the perfect place to shoot that pic of the city. At least bring a couple of guards with you........

I thought so too, but a recent perusal of several "Bad Places to Be" lists by everyone from the AARP to Forbes Magazine seems to suggest that strolling the streets of Tallahassee, Anchorage, or god forbid, New Haven, Connecticut is far more dangerous. Camden didn't even make it in to the top 25 SMSAs, unless it's lumped in with Philly itself. Michigan seems to be blighted in more ways than one, with both Detroit and Flint making the top 10. Memphis, Stockton CA, and Rockford, Illinois are some other surprising hot spots.Always near the top of "Ten most dangerous cities in America"
Maybe the conventional wisdom isn't always correct...

You've found great vantage points, but you're photos made me a little homesick. I used to live in Philly, and so do miss it at times.
