Skyline Jacksonville Florida - Original Photography - 10 Days Of Reflection - Day 1

in #photofeed7 years ago (edited)


The skyline of Jacksonville, Florida - Home Of The Jacksonville Jaguars


This skyline shot of Jacksonville was taken from the Southbank Riverwalk beside the Museum of Science and History and Friendship Fountain. The very tall imposing building was once the Modis building and is now the Wells Fargo building. If you know Jacksonville, you will notice that the name is missing from the building. There is a good reason for that! In order for this to be a stock image used for more than just pure editorial reporting, Getty required the name to be removed for trademark reasons, as it was too prominent in the image. If you Google stock images of the city, this is what you will see, except for the odd image that is listed for purely editorial use!

The blue bridge on the right of the image is The Main Street Bridge, so I am using @tattodjay's #bridgesoftheworld tag.

Really Great photo!

Thanks! I appreciate that!

Thanks for sharing... I am also going to follow @photography-101. Because photographs have lots to say, I believe!

Cool! I will be writing a new post soon, so stay tuned!

That is an absolutely magnificent reflection!! You totally nailed it!

Thanks! That's what happens when the river is calm! LOL!

Did you see the cloud reflections in the big building too?

I like how that blue bridge and blue sky in harmony on your photo, well done!

Thanks! I appreciate your feedback. Thanks for stopping by!

Such a seriously cool skyline and love the reflections

Thanks! It is a cool skyline. I have some night time ones too. It is a pretty city, with the river in front of it.

Amazing colors

When you get a perfectly sunny day in Florida, it all comes together!

I guess so!

Love the blue bridge and the nice puffy clouds. Very nice.

I'm so excited to see you join the challenge @dmcamera and this is an epic photo for day 1!

Super surreal. Especially the pearl blue building with reflections. Beautifully photographed Diane. All the different blues are fabulous, especially in the water reflections. 🦋

Thanks. It’s great having the river there, because every shot of the skyline will be different depending on the clouds.

Thanks! Florida blue skies helped out. Lol!

Is the bridge really blue? Very cool. That is what caught my eye. Nice!

It really is blue, and looks terrific all lit up at night. Check a few comments above where @liberty-minded has posted a night shot!

Beautiful. Makes me like the city. And the night shout was good too.
