Some random film shots from Philadelphia. I couldn´t decide.... Was trying to convey the spirit of the city... But don´t think I do it justice....
Thank you for all your well wishes. I´m taking it this week. That is, if I can´t convince Berta to put on a wig and take it for me.... or maybe Jorge... :)
P.S. I saw the documentary on Bill Cunningham. What a beautiful film! I advise watching it on the sofa, with a cup of tea, cozy blanket, and a warm body snuggled against you (preferably a dog... who will let you watch it in peace.;)). If you don´t have a dog, Coco is willing to travel. I´ll have to come too... to translate... her English is a little rusty... OK, I´ll stop rambling now. :)
¡Hasta pronto!

These are just gorgeous. Philadelphia is one of my favorite cities.
Hi Jane, thanks for visiting. What a great collection of shots! Natural, well composed and unique. What are you shooting with?
Hi Jane - I've been away so long. These are just fabulous. You must have been so pleased to get the film back - like opening Christmas presents! Truly beautiful. Happy weekend, and I hope that test goes well. I let my (NY) license lapse when I was in college many years ago, and drove without one for NINE years(!) because I was so freaked by the idea of taking the test again. Wow - stupid things we do as young ones...
I kust love your "eye", your special look at everything...
Film is always so special, wonderful pics Jane!
i love your film photos of philly. the composition and tones are so lovely. just wish they were of nyc and i was able to meet you in person.
if people want to be grumpy they should NOT see the bill cunningham documentary because smiling from ear to ear is unavoidable!
Great images of Philadelphia. The more you show the more I tend to believe I have been there by myself. ;o)
And, by the way, I wouldn't mind watching a film with you and Coco on my sofa!
These are just fantastic. I have never been there, but it feels like you capture the spirit of the city. they are so moody...
With or without Coco, you are always welcome on my sofa: we will have tea and cookies and will watch the documentary together :)
And this is why my sister says, "It's a nice picture. It's no Spain Daily, but it's a nice picture." Your ability to find quaint bicycles around the globe is amazing.
SOTA Spirit of the Artist - your artistic spirit shines through these photos. All are wonderful, but I especially love the last one - black figures against the white tower.
all those are simply Awesome Jane!!!
happy weekend girlfriend!

Thanks for the tip on the Cunningham film and the post of course if fabulous. I need to just follow you around for a day and see what you're seeing!
I feel the spirit of Philly in your film. Gorgeous place Jane, gorgeous photos!

lovely glimpses!
does that mean you are coming over jane?
loved these shots. all of them.
Wonderful shots...never been there but you made it look inviting.
You really did convey the spirit of the city.. I felt swept away from Texas to Philly in this post. Thank you!
The photos are beautiful movie. I really like them all. Philadelphia seems to be a great city.
AWESOME!
I am sure my children would love to play with Coco since we don't have a dog and they love dogs. Anytime you want to visit Georgia you are welcome to come visit.
WENK... !!!
All beautiful shots. And I can't believe after all my USA travels, I've never been to Philadelphia, ever. I'm scratching my head wondering how I missed it.
Thanks for the photos, you nudged me a little close to planning a visit-- as soon as the snow is gone.

just awesome!
These photos are fantastic! I love the way Philly looks on film.
i've never been there, but you made me want to go. i think that's doing it justice. oh, and i completely agree about tea and dogs and snuggling and movies...
These are such amazing shots!
Is the cider really that bad?
love love love! I've been to Philly once, I really enjoyed it, but not to the max cause a lady who I met in the bus, kept going on about the criminality, danger and poverty in the city, I was on alert all the time. Now I feel ridicioulous about it :S
wow! these are amazing! sigh. film is such a nice medium and you made the best use possible of it
I'm liking what I'm seeing!
Good luck with the driving test!
Your photos are stunning!
Hi there Jane! I love the bike photo, and the American flag, the flowers, the jars and the van.....oh i love them all. Great shots - all of them!
beautiful!!!
Oh!! I am in love with your hometown!!! I love these shots Jane!!
Now, how did the test go?? Bet you passed it with flying colours!! Jorge must treat to dinner to a very expensive restaurant to celebrate ;)
That's it! I'm going to Philly! You'd better let me know next time you come. I will high tail it in your direction in a flash!
These pictures are beautiful! I have never been to Philadelphia... Looks like a great palce to visit!!
Have a wodnerful weekend, Jane!

Lovely!!
Best of luck with the drivers, I only got mine about 5 years ago and also because my beloved handsome gave me a deadline... I thing getting my drivers has been the greatest achievement of my life, honest, I have so hated cars all my life (scared of them too, and drivers in Madrid, all maniacs!!!). On a happier note, love all the photos, your pueblo is indeed beautiful! BesosXXX
Estupenda serie, Jane!!!...me han encantado las tonalidades que has conseguido...un trabajo precioso!!!
Un abrazo!!! ;)
Wonderful, wonderful photos Jane... Inspiring, as always!
