This is one of the clearest and well framed shots of the Arch I've seen. Sounds like it's going to be quite a tourist area this year.

Awesome shot, Joseph. And, as BJ said, one of the best pictures of the Arch I've ever seen. Kudos on another great job. :)

Is that the floating McDonad's or Burger King I see by the bank in the lower left?
(Well, that's what it was when I was there back in the late 80s...hehe)

Looks like a postcard, nice one!
