Downtown Walkabout; a date with me

Today, after a exhilarating morning meeting, I took a walkabout in the glorious sunshine before my luncheon with a good friend and my wife. 

[[posterous-content:pid___0]]During my walkabout, I came across this alley of intrigue and character. 

[[posterous-content:pid___1]]Using the best I have (the one that was with me) I shot some shots of the alley. 

[[posterous-content:pid___2]]I tried different angles, views and processing styles. 

[[posterous-content:pid___3]]Textures and smells were abundant in the alley; a truly visceral place of intrigue. 

[[posterous-content:pid___4]]Downtown Salem is a unique and special place for creative types, like me, where I can experience the things that others simply pass by everyday.

[[posterous-content:pid___5]]Mostly unappreciated, mainly ignored; downtown can be a great place for a getaway... a place to have a date with yourself.

Great things are happening and all I can do is jump up and down for joy!
