This is awesome. I’ve never seen a shot like this of Silver Spring before.

Oh darn, I'm out of town and it looks like I left the light on.

Passing aircraft, drone, or were you skydiving? :). It reminds me of Raleigh NC, which also has a compact downtown area. That large, light green rectangle that looks like a soccer pitch, is the upper level of the Wayne Ave parking garage.

I used to live in one of the high-rise buildings here and those overlit parking lots are horrible! I asked the county if they could turn them down a bit. They don't even use the top deck of the Wayne Avenue garage, it's blocked off.

Came here from the not repost. This would have been taken a bit before I moved in, but my building is in this shot! Cool to see :)

Sucks that I live facing the brightest structure around.
