Street Life

Recently, I had the opportunity to get on top of the overhang of the world famous First Avenue music venue in downtown Minneapolis. How and why did I get up there? Believe it or not, I wasn't trying to evade the police. (Although, if I were, the top of the overhang would be an excellent spot.) Actually, I'm just not going to tell you how or why I got up there, because it's not important.

What is important is the image I created while up there.

This image is both a reflection of the street corner below as well as a view through the window at the back of the bar's liquor rack. See how the liquor bottles read correctly, while the street components (Hard Rock logo, taxi cab, etc.) read backwards?

I feel it makes for a nice juxtaposition of life both inside and outside the club. Street life, baby. Street life.
