philadelphia

yo dudes. today i decided that it would be rad to go to some philly tourist spots and take some photos… im pretty stoked. it is rad to live in a town with tons of history! it is one thing to be pissed at your dad for following some stupid yellow line in boston when you are ten and an entirely different thing to live 8 blocks from the liberty bell and decide to go check it out. history is way cooler when you can split it up into mini-trips within your own neighborhood. as it turns out, i live really close to a bunch of historically significant places. i am by no means done exploring, but this is what i did today… i started off at the liberty bell.

then i went to the brouse, which is sweet

thats what a tilt shift photo would look like if i had a tilt shift lens
