Cary Photo Journal: Road Trip to Pittsburgh & Ohio

road-trip-pittsburghCary, NC – A couple of weeks ago, our photo intern Brian Speice took a road trip to Pittsburgh and Ohio. We said “bring your camera.”

A Cary Point of View

Of course, people from Cary travel all the time, all over the world. Some of them take pictures. Some, like Brian, are really good photographers.

Which raises the question, do Cary-ites have a particular point of view? Do we see the world a certain way? Is there a “Cary-school?”

Lest you think, dear readers, that we are just gilding the lily, you’ll recall that we’ve done other photo essays by Cary-ites abroad – in Berlin, New York, New Dehli and elsewhere.

Add this one to the Cary Road Journal collection.

Cary Photo Journal: Road Trip to Pittsburgh & Ohio

From photographer Brian Speice:

“Hal, Here are 14 of my favorite pictures from my trip! Other than the first three (traveling pictures) and the last one (shot in Ohio), they were shot around Pittsburgh (where we had the most time to just walk around and do street photography).”
