To Phila

In some painfully bored moments at work... I decided to look for some happy-thought photos of and from Philadelphia. What a great passtime. It makes me feel better and it's FREE!

Philadelphia at Sunrise.... pretty.






















These are from a charity event/fashion show. Have I ever mentioned how gorgeous I think red can be?




The Philadelphia Museum of Art. Think I can get season tickets?










An actual mural. How eften do you see one of those?


















I just liked this photo of a bridge because the sky looks incredible. I'll have to let you know if the sky ever looks that good in person.









Even the alleys have personality!










I am a big fan of parks. Parks with benches, even better. Pretty parks with pretty benches... I'm so there!













Hopefully I can get into the cool historical sites without feeling uber-touristy. This one was relatively inviting... as long as our B. Franklin actor doesn't creep me out.



















I found a lot of promising fountain pics. I could sit and watch a fountain forever. Something about moving water is just hypnotizing.

i'm a little jealous, mle.
in the search for historicity and culturedness, i really don't think you can beat philadelphia. kind of the u.s.'s version of kyoto....
while i don't think i've ever been there [one trip to the east coast when i was 12, and i forget where all we went], i think shelley really sums it up well. it will be a strong complement to you, offering the art and inspiration to sustain your [supposedly-former] film student life as you work at being a new mother and awesome wife.

you'll always be a film maker.

[and those clouds will look that good only if you take with you an nd filter and a pola...]
