Spring has sprung with plenty strolling on State Street.

**Note, this is not the person who ruined my day**

It's a shitty thing that just one person can ruin your day, and on this day the man who screamed at me from across the street did exactly that. I've bottled it in for long enough, and I suppose being a month behind in posting my daily photos gives me time to reflect. That being said, he yelled my direction while I waited at a red light on Johnson. Loud as he possibly could "why is the only time I see you in our community is when you're taking pictures of people without their consent?"

I don't like to argue very much, and I could have explained to him that we live in an age where cameras are more prevalent then ever and as a matter of fact I'm sure that plenty of people candidly capture scenes on State on the daily. So why me? I don't know who he was or what he got out of his public exclamation, but I know it rubbed me the wrong way. The truth is, I started to avoid downtown from this encounter, and that is a sad thing because the isthmus brings me such joy. I only took three pictures on this day, and the encounter really soured my mood.

As I previous mentioned, it's been a month and I've slowly started to immerse myself back into the downtown scene and hope that I don't cross paths with the angry man again. After all, I've been doing pictures for 17 plus years capturing mostly the heart of the city I call home. So I shouldn't let one persons opinion define me, as I'd like to think more people enjoy what I do then think of it as a crime. Thanks for reading if you've made it this far.

I'm grateful for local artists who add a color display to everyday scenes, even on the days I'm feeling down the work they do brightens my mood as I pedal the isthmus.
