St Paul, Mississippi River bridge

I took a drive today trying to find Jerabeks New Bohemian coffee house, the directions I got got me nowhere, so I found this nice little coffee shop called TK's coffee, off of 35E. In my drive around this area of St Paul, I found lots of places to shoot, so the trip wasn't a total loss. I found this road that leads to a trail and stumbled upon the Mississippi river bridge, it's a cool railroad bridge and the area sits across the river from my favorite abandoned place, Island Station. I took some photos of the old power station and the bridge. As I was there, the train started to roll across the bridge so I took some photos, they came out blurry because I didnt think to set the camera up for this. There was some cool graffiti on the trains, too bad you can't tell what is on them. Here are some pics.

Graffiti (the industrial kind)

Here are some pics I took a few months ago with some other photographers. This was my first actual indoor adventure. There were 3 floors in this building and massive amounts of old metal and graffiti.

These are the photos from yesterday,

Beautiful day

Well, I finally made it outside today, the weather is so nice it must have been close to 50 this afternoon. I broke out the camera and tripod into the car and took off to St Paul for some shooting. I drove up Shepard road all the way where it turns into Warner Road and made a right. Dang I am not too good at remembering street names all I know is, I ended up in Newport near what I think is a recycling plant, it had trains, tracks, stuff and stacks of crushed cars. After today, I think there is hope the sun will shine again and warmer weather will visit us in the near future.
