“Oozing Pittsburgh” Contest Submission: Cityscape

Submitted by Jamie Fritz:

I love taking photos of pittsburgh. It’s the most photogenic city I’ve ever seen. But to get the whole ooze, you really need a bridge plus a river plus some skyscrapers. This shot has all that, good proportions, and a gorgeous blue sky to boot. Pittsburgh showed me her best that day.

Thanks to everyone who submitted photos for the “Oozing Pittsburgh” Contest!  There are still some yet to be posted, but no more submissions will be accepted.

That doesn’t mean, however, that you can’t send us your photos for posting normally on the site!  Just send them to submit AT onlyinpgh DOT com.

The remaining submissions will be put up today and tomorrow, and over the weekend OIP and Left Hand Clothing will choose the five finalists.  After that, it’ll be up to you to vote for your favorite!

Thanks again, and keep those images coming!
