I lucked out here. The winds had started whipping up and the direction shifted so the in-use runways were swapped shortly before "Roxanne" departed. Plus, the "d" roll was longer than usual; thus, it rotated as it was passing by my position and I was able to catch it with the city skyline in the background.
