Recently I found myself in need of doing what I haven’t done in a while- wonder the city solo to document life in motion. I found a few things of interest, but really enjoyed taking deep breaths and being in the moment. No obligation, no plans, no one to deter me otherwise. Me, my camera and eventually a bit of caffeine. Those days are healthy for me (well, maybe not the caffeine). It’s easy to pick your camera up for work. But, sometimes there needs to be no reason to do so-like when I first picked up a camera. It often opens creative avenues. So, I parked my car on 4th & Arch (in Old City) and wandered through the heart of Old City, Queen Village, Italian Market and back. Enough time to meet Jen for dinner and a drink after her engagement session at Eastern State Penitentiary.
As I exited a coffee shop on South St I noticed Lady Miah sitting, waiting for her friend to post flyers. The light falling on her just leveled me. She was gracious enough to allow me fire off about 4 shots in 10 seconds. I left the scene untouched, so you photo snobs might have to mind the bottle 
These two are the 1st and the last. As I thanked her and left she said “I’m happy to have sparked creativity”. It was perfect.

Another orange Scooter! I may have to make this a theme.
