So very Portland...



This photo was taken by Alex V. of a very special and personal moment. I will leave it to the photographer to share the story behind the photo if he so chooses. For me, it is a very good representation of Portland style, color and culture.

This shot comes from a block party held on the 17th of this month to honor of a late friend, Sarah Jennings, who passed away in March of brain cancer. There is a lot of her in this photo, actually. That band in the background was Sarah's last, and the girl sitting in front bears an uncanny resemblance to her. The dancing mother and daughter are practically facsimilies of Sarah and her mother Karen. The Tibetan prayer flags set a tone of celebration and remembrance for a fantastic person who always lived her life with a finger on the pulse.

But this photo also captures a nice vision of Southeast Portland in the summertime, and I think it's worth a lot. Enjoy!
