CATCHING A RIDE around town in Schenectady

Stuck in Schnectady with another street scene. This time we even have a bicyclist, who I'm hoping was never accused of doping. I'm saddened that that thought even enters my mind.

And again we have a photographer willing to risk life and limb in order to get their shot. Was there at least one kind soul yelling, "Get out of the middle of the street you dang fool! The trolley is coming right at you!"

If you read the copy on the front of this card you'll see that I've still vaguely got my bridge theme going. I mean, really vague. Was the photographer standing on the R.R. Bridge? Was he or she concerned about an oncoming train as he or she yelled to the people in the street below, "Okay, everyone stop and smile. Well, you don't need to smile, but please stop moving!" Or was this the final shot this photographer every took?

I quite like the treatment of "Post Card" on the back. I also love the signage on the buildings.
