Metrodome

The Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome.
The Metrodome was the home of the Vikings from 1982 to 2013, the Twins from 1982 to 2009, the National Basketball Association's (NBA) Minnesota Timberwolves in their 1989–90 inaugural season, the Golden Gophers football team from 1982 to 2008, and the occasional home of the Golden Gophers baseball team from 1985 to 2010 and their full-time home in 2012. It was also the home of the Minnesota Strikers of the North American Soccer League in 1984. The Vikings played at the University of Minnesota's TCF Bank Stadium for the 2014 and 2015 NFL seasons, ahead of the planned opening of U.S. Bank Stadium in 2016.

The sky steals the scene. Very nicely composed. The monochrome treatment also packs a punch.

Love how the bright dome stands out in the frame. But that amazing sky steals the show.

PS: I love that dramatic sky.

Tremendous B&W work here, Dennis. Great composition that makes the Metrodome stand out. It looks like a huge UFO that landed in the middle of MPPLS. ~BV~

Very well composed from this vantage point. I like the look of that unsettled sky. Great tones! "V"

a potent image....the city outline resembles megaliths arrayed for some mystical purpose, an impression supported by menacing clouds..

Looks like there were no events that day, and a storm was brewing! Nice shot.
