A late fall shot of the sometimes under-represented part of downtown. A beauty to behold, it is.

My kids and I had just entered downtown from photographing the parks and pottery building behind the Bryan Center when I saw three (always larger than life) turkey vultures riding a wind current above the Dayton Street buildings. By the time I propped my bike against myself (carefully, with three year old perched on back) they had busied themselves elsewhere. But with the late summer Ohio sky against the old red brick in my viewfinder, it was clear to me that the great beauty in simple things is often missed by the passerby.
