Another picture of the bridge and traffic. I am really trying to capture something you can't with a photo - the smell of the city. The city doesn't smell good and is noisy. Its something I really feel after I've returned from visiting up north. After just a few days, I will absorb my surroundings and be happy in the city - find the good smells, like lilacs and bakeries, but I'm really glad I know today that it doesn't smell good. I'm really not trying to complain - I'm trying to express my love of that crisp inhale after driving north for 4.5 hours. There is nothing like it. I see the lake and I get excited in Duluth, but the first inhale outside the car in my parents' driveway is my fix. I need that to feel like I'm home again.
