I was in KC for a conference. During my stay I wandered the streets with my vintage Argus 35mm camera, &
a cheap plastic lomographic colorflash camera.
My goal was to capture the brawniness, big concrete, great neon, and ghost signs of the city. I also enjoyed tasting all the beers at the regional "Boulevard Brewery".

During my visit to Kansas City, I witnessed a robbery,
and was also propositioned by a hobo.
"the "lavergne & shirley" style bottling operation at Boulevard Brewery...
I walked around downtown at night with an
open shutter to capture the big city brick nightscapes.
