The weather is great this time of year. Cool in the morning and warm in the afternoons … Today’s photo shows a man wearing a light jacket, reading a book, and enjoying the morning sun while sitting on bench in downtown Greenville. Also, because it is football season I suspect the orange shirt shows his allegiance to Clemson University … Past photos showing people reading include the perfect Sunday Morning and playing with light and shadows.

Art in the Park moved to Fluor Field this year, I assume due to the construction downtown. Flour Field is home for the Greenville Drive baseball team. As a result … In addition to great art, crowds, and lots of fun … it was possible to get a hot dog … Today’s photo shows a combination of visual art and performance art. The lady posing, for the painter, had a microphone and was visiting with the crowd.

Friday night I took this photo of a musician entertaining dinners on the patio at Restaurant O. The music was good and the evening perfect … We eat at Restaurant O, on occasion, and have always enjoyed the food … About the photo; personally I like the lighting on the fountain … Some of my readers may remember my previously posted photo of the door handle at Restaurant O.

Oliver Yu, a very talented local photographer, was taking photos at Friday Night Jazz last night … Never one to miss an opportunity I looked over Oliver’s shoulder to see the scene from the prospective of a professional … It was impressive how the model stands out in the crowd … I recommend our readers stop by Oliver’s website and enjoy his photos … Or better yet drop by his studio and say hello.

Recently I took this quick snap of a bicycle police patrol in downtown Greenville … Personally I am very pleased for their presence. The police have always been a phone call away but somehow their bicycle patrols are more personal … The building shown is the Carolina First building (map location).

Like many people I carry a laptop computer back and forth to work. I also listen to music on the XM website while at work. However this photo defines the phrase, taking your music to work, much more literally … Actually I have seen this scene several times and last light I was lucky to be in the right place to capture this photo showing members of the Greenville Symphony walking toward the Peace Center for a performance … The building in the background is the restored administrative office of the Huguenot Mill (map location).

It rained yesterday so I am sharing a photo from under a bridge (map location) in downtown Greenville. While I am very impressed that Greenville had the wisdom to use the space under this bridge to place tables I have also found it amusing that a lamp post should be placed under a bridge … The water you see flowing on the right hand side of the photo is run off water from the rain falling on the bridge … Most impressive to me is the fact that the planners of River Walk saw the need to place a
rock garden under the run off drain.
