Seen in Northeast Portland

Actually, this is one half a block inside Northeast Portland. The street behind the man is East Burnside which is the street that divides Portland's north from south. The street on the left of the photo is NE Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. I took this photo on December 8, a Saturday. I was out and about, walking and looking and taking photos on a dry-at-the-moment Saturday morning--before I ended up at Tuba Christmas at Pioneer Courthouse Square.

Since this is where on my morning commute I change from one bus to the other, or from one bus to the streetcar,  I am thankful that I've never before seen this man feeding the pigeons. 

Seen through the windshield of my TriMet bus

I love all of these highway signs and street signs and reflections and traffic signals.
 

On the way home, stopped at the intersection of East Burnside and NE Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. The green car heads south on MLK. The next intersection is with Grand Avenue. I'm on the 19. Up ahead, pulling to a stop at the bus shelter, you've got the 20 first, then the 12. There's one woman standing at the bus shelter, waiting for either the 12 or the 19, I'm guessing since she hasn't approached the 20.
 

By the time my bus pulled up to the traffic signal at Grand Avenue, the bus shelter had emptied of people.
