I just love downtown San Antonio. There's so much energy, and when I'm down there, I always feel like I'm on vacation. My most favorite place is a courtyard just outside Rivercenter mall, which the River runs right through. There's an enchanting Peruvian band that plays "rainforest" type of music every day. I love to go there, and since I don't work too far from downtown, I get to go often. I love to watch people enjoy it from other places, and I call it my "Candid Photography Paradise". It's where I've captured most of my candid shots. As far as big cities go, I really don't think San Antonio can be matched for great ambiance and great experiences -- unless it's August of course :)
