Minneapolis Sunrise by CarbonSilver (gbenz).

This is downtown Minneapolis viewed from the South during a June sunrise. If you've never been here, it's a pretty incredible city.

Funny side story... Someone called the cops while I was shooting this picture (I guess any picture of these building these days draws some attention). I guess the neighborhood in this area can be a little dicy sometimes (not that any part of Minneapolis is really rough). I just laughed and told the cops I was sorry someone wasted their time.
