Nice! Just became my desktop at work. :-)
I went up in the top back in the mid- 1980s. Quite a sight, and those little elevators are certainly an experience. ;-)

Well done! I'm tempted to go to McDonalds and try to duplicate this magic :)... Somehow I just don't think it would be the same. I've never been to St. Louis and this is a very impressive sight from this angle. Thanks for sharing!
Nice picure. I like the angle and the blue sky vs the blue arch. I makes me want to hop on a plane and visit St. Louis to see the arch for myself Way to go!
Ah. This makes me homesick. Being from St. Louis, I've seen this perspective several times, and I am still amazed at the beauty in its simplicity. It's very difficult to get a good photo of it, especially if you want one in the sunlight. The glare from all that metal just makes for a nightmare of a time getting a good angle on it. Good job on the shaded side, though. I like it. Instant Wallpaper!!!

LOL! I took this EXACT SAME PICTURE when I was in St. Louis! I guess we are less creative than we thought we were... but, great minds think a like, right? :-) I have to say, you were there on a much nicer day than I was... I think the sky was about the same color as the arch.. not as stunning. Kudos to you!
Very good! I like the way the clouds are framed within. If the clouds were 'leaking' out, the character that makes this picture work would not exist in my opinion. Great shot!
