I know the answer to this one - because I said I was going to do it one day!

1) Memorial Drive heading into downtown. There is a hill and the FABULOUS downtown skyline. I stopped there and took some shots myself

2) Heading 288 North, take the 59 South exit ramp. Not sure if you can stop on the ramp, but this is a GREAT view as well.

3) Heading 45 South towards downtown, once you get closer to downtown, there are some AWESOME vantage points.

Of all of these, I think #1 is the most practical and safest....LOL

Someone asked this recently.

I'll give the same answer here as I did then:

Tinsley Park. You'll get great shots from there.

Go up in a heli & take an aerial shot.

From Allen Parkway facing downtown.
