Roof Top Views

I had always wondered what it would be like to view parts of Washington DC from the air. But the views from a roof top is a bit more down to earth and shows a little more detail. Here, I am in North West DC specifically in the Mount Pleasant community.In the photo below are their roof tops with skylights, chimneys, and painted over copper standing seam roofs.
The fronts of these homes are quite beautiful and elegant but no one ever really gets see the rest. The masses are normally looking from the street side and not the ally side. Not that I would dare to go alley side anyhow. But from up here the view of the other side of the alley was somewhat unexpected. I was surprised to see the beauty in such an historic place where crime usually takes place 24/7.

From here trees seem to grow from above the garages but they aren't. Also to put more perspective to the view I am on top of two stories and those house across the ally way are much higher than I. From the top you can count the stories, 5. Three for the house and two for the garage. For some odd reason I find this to be far more interesting than the fronts. However for up here the fronts aren't to bad either!
I hope you have found this to be an interesting blog, short even in its descriptions.
Until next time.
Peace,
