I generally prefer to shoot my photos of downtown in the early morning. That way I can capture night like pictures before sunrise, the sunrise itself and the early morning. The other huge benefit is there are very few people to get in my pictures. The morning I shot these I had headed downtown to capture the Skypoint building. Since I got there early I took a few shots from across the water before heading over to my target for sunrise. The Element building is right next to Skypoint and I was able to capture a few good shots of is also.
