Ellipsis Monday Photo Shoot #63: Downtown.









"Farmers only worry during growing season, but towns people worry all the time."

-Edgar Watson Howe












EMPS #63: DOWNTOWN. NOW CLOSED!
Easy one this week! Grab your cameras and photograph the DOWNTOWN area of where you live! Big city, small hamlet... it's all good! But for this photo shoot I want to see brand new photos, so NO ARCHIVES this time around!

Extra Credit: Photograph your DOWNTOWN both during the day and at night!

**PLEASE READ**
This Monday Photo Shoot assignment closes next Sunday evening at 9:00 PM ET. Please folks, that gives you nearly a whole week to do the assignment, post it to your blog, journal or website, and comeback here with a link (NO HYPERLINKS) which goes back to an entry specific to this week's assignment. Please be mindful of the date and time the assignment closes. I turn off the comment thread at 9:00 PM, after that, NO ADDITIONAL ENTRIES WILL BE ACCEPTED! Also, please be sure to link back here in your entry, so folks can find the assignment and play along!

Karen's New Photo Shoot#3: Downtown

"Whether he is an artist or not, the photographer is a joyous sensualist, for the simple reason that the eye traffics in feelings, not in thoughts."

-Walker Evans

New Monday Photo Shoot #3: Show us something you saw downtown, for the purposes of this week's topic, your "downtown" can be in any municipality you go into on a regular basis, from the major city two hours down the highway to your own home city, town or village, or the only gas station and traffic light in a fifty mile radius.

-Karen Funk Blocher, of the blog, (Outpost Mavarin)

I thought it would be nice to show off some of my favorite haunts, beginning with my very favorite city to photograph, San Francisco. I also have a picture of the town I live in, Berkeley, and my favorite sunny spot in Northern California, Santa Cruz. :) Enjoy!

What I See In San Francisco...

City Hall

Market Street

Street Performers In Union Square

The History of Haight/Ashbury

But Not Just History, Whimsy too

Telegraph Avenue, Berkeley

Along The Beach And Boardwalk Of Santa Cruz
