The View From Above | Gallery #5: Photos from the U.S. Bank building in Moorhead | The View from Above: A bird's-eye look at the place we call home

For the fifth installment of “The View from Above,” I made my way to the roof of the U.S. Bank building at 403 Center Avenue in Moorhead (Minnesota). Armed with my little Nikon D60 (18-105 mm Nikkor zoom lens for those interested), I tried to capture some of the views from there. Click on one of the small pictures below to view a larger version of the image. You can also view previous galleries in this series.

If you’re new to the blog, “The View from Above” is a photo project featuring images from (relatively) high points in the Fargo-Moorhead area (and maybe beyond at some point). If you have suggestions for great places in the region to take some photos for this series, email me at smercer@forumcomm.com. Hope you enjoy the pics.
