801 Grand
Saturday Night in Des Moines
Went to my friend's joint birthday party after the Des Moines Art Festival and watched the fireworks. The resulting smoke clouds made the 801 Grand building look pretty sweet.

A Review from The Des Moines Egotist
The Des Moines Egotist recently reviewed my photos of Des Moines and picked their top 5.
“What makes Mr. Briggs’ portfolio successful:
Good presentation. Good introduction. We know what we’re looking at and why the photos are there.
Studied angles. It’s clear he is wandering around and around these familiar-to-most-of-us buildings, and finding new ways to see them.
An experimental theme. Riley, your eye for geometry is strong. The snaps you’ve enhanced with subtle patterns and linear highlights are among your strongest.”
