Description
View from the top of the Liberty Memorial in Kansas City...facing south. Asymmetry...but love the way the grass cutters do their work.
Recent view from the same location facing north
And if you like to recall what I am using for a viewpoint, here it is. Observation deck is open air just below the top of the 216 foot high tower.

Having never been to Kansas, except in that movie with all the flying monkeys and green old lady and....oh never mind! As I say I've never been, so this is super interesting to me.

I love this view, and it was fun to follow your links back. One had another link even farther back, to a 360-degree pano. A most excellent series, no matter the time frame. Good stuff!

I bet the gardeners are 'for it' if they get it wrong. This shot draws you in and invites you to jump. Beautiful clear image.

This reminds me of a line I heard in a movie once. One lover spoke to his...well...his lover and said: "Last night, I had a dream that I'd climbed the world's tallest ladder. I don't know why I did it, or what I was climbing for but as I was miles and miles up, I looked down, and I saw you. You held out your arms, you smiled, and you shouted a single word to me. You shouted, jump." That line stuck with me and I don't even remember the frikkin' movie: something obscure and independent and probably very full of itself, but there you have it: a memorable piece of dialog evoked by this image! I love the asymmetry of it, the rich mind-saving green (humans can't live and remain sane without greenery.) Those stripes are quite astonishing, actually...something you can only see from so far up...yeah, you can see them from lower to the ground, but the effect is different...those are long distance stripes, meant to be seen from way the heck up! Marvelous, and this is a perfect, captivating capture. Really great work here!

Beautiful shot, Bill! With all the rain we've had here, that grass is sooo green! The precision of those lawn guys is pretty amazing - wonder if it's the same guys that do those fancy crop circles... I remember tossing a paper airplane off this tower when I was a kid. I think it ended up in Iowa somewhere... One can certainly get lost in this photo!

Man, what a exquisite landing and takeoff strip we have going here, Bill! Superlative clarity and DOF in this shot of what looks so architecturally and pristine beautiful.
