Footloose and in focus on the Minneapolis skyways. All photos taken on or between skyways on my daily meander.

Skateboarders in the bus barn
These skaters saw me walk past with an armload of photo equipment and decided to launch on the ramps anyway. As soon as I raised my camera and snapped this, they stopped and stared at me then started walking toward me. I am sure they just wanted to know the URL of my blog, but I had to go.
There are 8 miles of skyway used by tens of thousands of people a day. There is a horizontal grandeur here, and a lesson in self-organization for those who wonder what the public/private partnerships of the future look and work like. If you see me wandering around, say Hi. I might take your picture.
And, for the record, I will probably cheerfully give you permission to use these photos for non-commercial purposes if you ask, and give credit. Try it...or buy it if you want. But let me know.
