26-June-2003, Joey Blue, Roadside

Going for a run:
This had got to be the most daring and difficult photos I have done. There is a four-lane road running right by in both directions. It was near the end of rush hour [about 6:07 pm]. Not only that, but it is prime time for runners and bicyclists to use the off-road path. As you can see by the insert there were plenty of runners, bikers and cars going by. What you cannot see is that cars were heading in my direction. I actually took two photos and some cars drove by while I was out there almost completely naked. I did keep on my bandana. LOL! I took one just standing there and then hit the remote control as I ran back to my camera on the tripod next to my bicycle. I liked the running one better. It sort of fit the idea that it was a running/biking path right next to the road. Funny, no one beeped their horns or anything. I wonder if they even noticed?
It sure is a nice view of the Philadelphia Museum of Art on the left and the city skyline on the right.
Take care & stay bare,
Joey Blue
