I crouched low at the intersection of Park Avenue and S 4th Street to capture this view of the Minneapolis skyline, letting the low angle stretch the towers up into a dramatic, cloud-filled sky. Stripping the scene down to black and white lets the contrast between the lit-up buildings and the churning clouds carry the whole image, with the historic clock tower standing out against the downtown skyscrapers.
This piece is a great fit for anyone who loves Minneapolis, downtown architecture, or a moody, black and white cityscape.
Looks Best On
For a shot like this one, I recommend a High Gloss Metal print — it holds the deep blacks and keeps the contrast between the sky and the skyline looking sharp and dramatic. Canvas Gallery Wrap is also available if you'd prefer a softer, more painterly texture, and Acrylic and Fine Art Paper round out the other finish options.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size should I choose?
Use the Live Preview AR tool to see the actual size on your own wall using your phone or tablet, or the Wall Preview tool to see it staged in a sample room. Both are available right on this page.
What's the difference between the materials?
Metal prints have a smooth, modern finish with vivid contrast and deep blacks — a great match for this dramatic sky. Canvas Gallery Wrap offers a softer, more textured look. Acrylic adds extra depth and a glossy, glass-like shine, and Fine Art Paper gives a more traditional, matte presentation.

This was shot at the intersection of Park Avenue and S 4th Street in downtown Minneapolis.
