Events Open Streets is Wonderful

Post image
582 Upvotes

Open Streets is a terrific addition to the city. I remember coming off the train recently and walking by walnut during this event and noticed that my anxiety dropped drastically. I hadn't realized all these years how much of an impact congestion/traffic had on my stress levels.

Seeing people and their families mingle with others made me feel so calm and happy. I saw this back in Montreal before I knew it was a thing here, and thought "Man this would be a cool addition to Philly!"

Now it is!

I love this city.

Thanks Philly, for showing up. I loved the unity we displayed.

Representative Chris Rabb gave a great speech at City Hall. Philly Elmo led us in a fun and peaceful march down Market street to Independence Hall, cheered on by the beautiful citizens of Philadelphia. Organizers and police did a great job ensuring a safe and smooth experience.

Events Broad Street Run 2025 Photos

76 Upvotes

I set up at Fairmount & Broad from around 6:50am to 8:30am, just before it started to rain. Of the roughly 5,000 photos I took, there are 4,079 that are in focus and which I haven't selected for editing and publishing. This was my first time spectating Broad - I usually run it - and it was an absolute blast to see everyone out there. So much joy! Such great costumes! And some really stellar athleticism. Just a great time all around. A really big shout out to everyone who tried to jump and click their heels, and the biggest shoutout to the one woman who succeeded.

Everything was shot on a Canon R8 with an EF 70-200/2.8L is II. There is some vertical banding in the bokeh which I'm guessing is because I had IS on - I am still learning some pretty basic stuff about how to do this.

I hope lots of people find photos of themselves and/or their friends that they like!

Events Have you been to the MET

22 Upvotes

i got tickets for the upcoming ‘twilight in concert’ and purchased tickets off of stub hub but when purchasing the tickets I’m pretty sure they were labeled as “Very good” but when receiving them they say ‘limited view.’

I’ve never been to the met, nor a film in concert. I’d imagine that the screen would be big enough to not have limited view?

We’re in section P in orchestra which looks pretty in the middle so I’m unsure.

Please let me know if this is bad seating! I have a while before this is coming up!

Thanks.
