What an unusually refreshing set of shots. I live here but these shots you've captured make me want to visit Philly. Maybe I should leave my apartment once in a while. Nice work.
There is a lot more to Philly than "Parking Wars" and "Broad Street Bullies". There are also Steak Sandwiches, killer architecture and Taco Bells... hum excuse my french; I meant Liberty Bells...
I regard Philly as the fourth best city in the US after NY, DC and Boston. In many respects, it's as good as Boston, and its location (between NY and DC) is unbeatable.
I prefer it to the other contenders for the top 5 spots for best US city (i.e., LA, SF and Chicago).
I think you caught a picture of me in the third photo walking down Walnut Street. I have on black jeans, a beige tshirt, and blue canvas sneakers that I wore for a little while last year, I think. When was that picture taken???
