PPG, in any light, and you've captured most of them, is amazing. Asking you to keep it up, would, I think, be unnecessary. Much harder getting you to stop. Don't stop! So lovely looking in on the 'burgh from here in China, year after year. Matt; you’ve got a great eye…the one black and white from Carnegie Tech was marvellous…more would be fine by me.

But I came home 2 years ago, moving back here after 7 years in VA is the best move I ever made. That feeling you get when you look at these fantastic pictures, about how much you miss home, thats your mind telling you that all that money you make doesn't fill the viod of not being home. Our families, our city, our football, our work ethic, you can't get that anywhere else. Come home, you only live once, the Burgh is only place for true quality of life and I couldn't raise my kids anywhere else. The Burgh is on the rise again.

Your SUPERB water reflection photos are second only to the image burned into my brain of the colors in Pittsburgh WHEN THE JONES AND LAUGHIN BESSEMERS BLEW!! With a low cloud deck overhead, the gorgeous colors were not only reflected in the three rivers, but were painted on the clouds overhead. No colored film then. This was the only time the city was even more beautiful than in your marvelous photography. Your "Norfolk Southern through downtown" is SO SPECIAL. Other shots are missing: the Inclines, an onion dome church over a steeply wooded creek ravine, chipped choppedham BBQ rolls, pierogis, Pitt campus from the top of the Cathedral of Learning and Panther Hollow. Wish you had been around with your modern camera in the '30's....which was truly the 'Burgh's heyday. We "yinzers" dig you, Matt. Grew up in the early ’30s on the heights above “Sawside”.
