Snowing in Center City

Description

Yesterday American Airlines donated $50,000 to the American Red Cross. I photographed the check presentation in the Garden Room of the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts, on Broad Street. The snow began in EARNest just when I was leaving to walk back to the train station--about a 10-block walk. It was a lot of fun doing street shots in the heavy downfall. This is the wonderful historic Union League on Broad Street

I love the scene, and I so envy you both the street shooting and shooting in the snow. And yet . . . I absolutely don't miss the cold. Is there a way I can have both? :-) I will look forward to seeing more of the city snow shots. #1604576
