I'm walking towards downtown today and I am struck by the variety to garbage and beauty on the streets.� The two are not mutually exclusive, I find some garbage to be beautiful.
At one point I found this long stretch of alley with some beautiful graffitti I have never seen before.� Amazing!
Then I have a little bit of a rant about gentrification.

A mostly videoblog, sometimes photoblog where I post clips about everything under the sun. Music, movies, random daily moments, stuff about food I eat and hikes I go on.

I completely relate to your urban situation- here in San Antonio, we are considered one of the fastest growing cities in the nation right now and nobody knows what to do about the lack of space accompanied by nonstop highway construction. tsk tsk. I also understand your perspective on the beauty of garbage. I even photograph nudes in city dumps, tire yards, etc. There is indeed something inexplicably compelling about it. perhaps because you know that there used to be such a purpose for its existence and now its virtually useless. this video spoke strongly about it all.
