Views from an artist in a city that marks the middle of the American map, Kansas City.

It's a goal of mine to accumulate night shots of the different cities I travel to. I've practiced plenty on Kansas City, this shot here being one wanted to get for a long time.. I finally made the time one night and got the shot. Good enough for me.. Follow me around as I add to the portfolio.
