What a strange day.  Weather forecasters were warning of dangerous thunderstorms all day.  At 9 am it got really dark so I quickly headed downstair and went out on the plaza and snapped a couple of photos before the storm hit.  15 minutes later and it was all clear.  Then just after I got home this afternoon another storm hit.  Thank goodness our area did not get hit really bad.  We have a tendency to lose power when these storms hit and it is too hot and humid to be without air conditioning.

Got a chance to go on the roof of the Renaissance Hotel in downtown Baltimore today.  The company I work for manages a building in downtown Baltimore and the owner wanted me to try and take some pictures of the building.  They just completed a major landscaping project last year.  The flowers that they planted last year are now in bloom and they wanted an updated photo.  So a co-worker and I got to go on two of the three roofs.  The building is kitty corner to the building.   We went on the lower roof first but it was hard to get a good photo of the building with the landscaping so the Chief Engineer of the building was kind enough to take us up to the the next roof.  There are three.  Even though it was overcast today the views were amazing and it was great to have a different perspective.  I could have stayed up there a long time taking photos but did not want to overstay my welcome.  I managed to take several photos of the building and a few more photos of the Baltimore skyline.  This is one of the skyline facing north from the Inner Harbor.
