I’ve been wanting to make this for a bit now, but here is the new forum finally! As most of you know I live just outside Philly and capturing it is my top hobby out of all. I thought showing off Philly would be good since most of the general public thinks it’s poor and run down, when really it’s now improving and is getting beautiful. Enjoy! ![PicsArt_05-05-11.13.49](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/2/9/29fc66dbbf4b45426e764faab40ea173a78086fe.jpeg) 05/05/2020 ---
