Downtown Geographical Expedition #2 - Reports from the field - Part One

The second Downtown Geographical Expedition on May 31st bore much creative fruit. Here are some of the memory maps created by the participants. Click on each map for a larger view.

We did a great photography exercise using historic photos of downtown Tucson. We each picked a photo and wrote a response using prompts. We then had to go to that location and take 3 pictures:
1) the same shot as the historic shot
2) a detail that reflects the historic shot
3) an image that reflects our vision for downtown

Here is one of the examples:

6th and Congress - facing north - 1941


1) The same intersection on May 31st

3)Vision


We then did a piece of writing about that spot.
