Twin CityScapes

This gallery is a collection of shots taken in and around the Twin Cities, my hometown in the state of Minnesota. The Twin Cities is composed of the cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, both of which are nestled against the Mississippi River approximately ten miles apart. Minneapolis is the larger, more cosmopolitan of the towns and, as such, is the major business/arts/entertainment hub within the state. St. Paul is like it's smaller sibling who is always fighting for attention. Nevertheless, it has charms all its own.

Interested in purchasing a print? A select number are available HERE. If your image of interest is not yet available for purchase, email me at guy@explorethelightphotography.com or leave me a message on this site. Please include either a link to the image or the gallery/image name.

I really enjoyed these pictures and having lived in Minneapolis all my life didn't realize just how beatiful our city really is. Having lived in Kazakhstan these last 7 years I really get homesick and these pictures make me feel I am home again. Thank you. Jonathan Pixler
