Not Your Usual Pedestrian Bridge User

One day on the Pfluger Pedestrian Bridge this fellow had set up his gongs for entertainment or meditation with his back to the runners, bikers, walkers, dogs and strollers.

Darkness Comes

One day we were walking over the Pfluger Pedestrian Bridge just as darkness started to take over the downtown skyline with our building in the center.

Clouds and Cranes

One day last month I shot this picture of the clouds and the construction and the JW Marriott on Congress from just north of it on Brazos.

Giant Octopus

There is a group of folks who raise money for Aids Services Austin. They call themselves the Octopus Club. They throw parties where everything is donated or underwritten and give all the money to a fund called the Paul Kirby Fund. They help people fighting HIV/AIDS to overcome temporary financial obstacles like buying drugs or food or paying rent or getting transportation to appointments. This fab balloon octopus decorated Brazos Hall for a big annual OctoTea event. At this party the group topped two million dollars of donation since its inception. Doing good while having fun!

As we get older we can really sympathize with this graffiti and with the ephemeral nature of graffiti and everything man makes around us.

Uranimum Savages rise again

This band, named Uranium Savages, was a popular act here in town back in the seventies. They got together for a reunion show at Waterloo Records a few days ago. The singer is Kerry Awn.

Looking Out

One morning I shot FFP's picture while he was trying to get the perfect sunrise picture from our condo. Today is City Daily Photo theme day. Today's theme is 'looking out' which is bound to be interpreted in a variety of ways. Click here for other interpretations.
