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

When is a skyway not a skyway?
When one end is blocked by Sheriff's deputies, and the entire skyway becomes a lobby filled with milling passers-by, waiting for their permission to pass by.
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.
