This is a photoblog of Uptown Minneapolis. Centered at Lake Street and Hennepin Avenue in South Minneapolis, Uptown is one truly unusual high energy commercial district. Below are some photos I’ve taken and some observations I’ve made about Uptown Minneapolis and the surrounding area.

Cool compositions! Heh, I'm just waiting until I see myself in one of these pictures, just wandering through the neighborhood.
Thanks! Wandering around will increase your odds. Hanging out by puddles will increase your odds even more:-)
Just say hi if you see a photog.
Holy wow!!
I love love love the forst one and the last one. Holy crap!
Wow! That is just great! Nice work! I moved out to Portland over the new year and miss MPLS already! I am glad I can keep up on your blog to bring me back and remember the uptown beauty!
Dang, cool reflections, especially in B&W. I really need ot get out more.
@missy - Holy thanks!
@darcy - Stop by anytime! At least Portland has a similar climate. I think i would go crazy w/o snow.
@dusty - Just do it man. Here is an article that you might find interesting. I agree with a lot of it, but not all of it.
Take the photo in the next post below for example Angles Shapes and Lines. I took a similar shot of that scene on at least three separate occasions with two different lenses and two different cameras before I was happy with the results.
Just go shoot and shoot often.
They are really good.
Yes, your first and last photos here are so fun to look at!
Thanks! I'm going to print the first one for sure.
