The Montgomery County Administration Building Night Photos And The Great Miami River

February 3, 2023

During the Summer of 2022, I photographed the Montgomery County (Ohio) administration building and the Great Miami River. I have done this before and my image is still featured on the MCOhio.org website. I decided to photograph this building from various spots on the west side of the river as part of my commercial photography portfolio.

Every few years I go downtown at night just to photograph buildings. One of the best spots is in between the Dayton Art Institute and the Dayton Masonic Center just west of the Great Miami River. The views of downtown and the river are beautiful, even though the I-75 gets in the way. About a half mile south of Dayton Masonic Center is another great place to photograph downtown Dayton from the west side of the river. I love zooming in on the building to capture the straight lines and LED lighting. I provide my photos to the county for use in publications and on websites.
