I go to Philly quite a bit. I’m there at least six or so times a year, so I always thought I was familiar with the city.
It turns out I don’t really know anything about the city. I know plenty about the Phillies ballpark or where the Eagles play. Wanna know about the old Spectrum, I’ve got you covered. I know very little about downtown. I thought I did but once I was there and walking around, I realized I had no idea where I was going. I also didn’t realize what I was missing. Center City is a great time. What’s even better is it’s a rich photo op. Luckily, I had a new lens with me – a Canon 100 MM macro 2.8.
So like any dedicated photog, I grabbed my new piece of glass and started wandering around, bumping into people and walking into different stores taking pictures. These are some of the things I came up with.
Dinic's at Reading Terminal Market. OMG, good!
Dinic's roast pork. Nuff said
Parking garage has electric car filling stations. One was in use. Pretty cool.
Holt's Cigar Shop downtown. I'm embarrassed to say I left without anything
I have no idea what store this was but it’s the greatest book title in history
Tony Luke's in South Philly
This did not last long
