Cyclists ride on the Naito Parkway in a dedicated bike lane safe from car commuters trying to exit Downtown Portland after the workday ends. The cyclists are spotlit by the stark light of the setting sun. Seen here riding under the sign for SW Ankeny, the two cyclists are under a canopy of autumnal foliage. In the background the Burnside Bridge casting a shadow on the road. Above the bridge, a profile of the White Stag Portland, OR neon sign on top of an industrial building.

A man running uphill in the Rose Quarter under a tree covered in yellow leaves. Several cars are seen behind him commuting on an overpass connecting I-5 and I-84. In the distance, hazy skies and a brief glimpse of Downtown Portland.

Random items from a homeless encampment that has since been removed are strewn about the sidewalk, spotlit by the setting sun. Of note, cards from a deck of Uno, a bottle of hot sauce, a coupon for starting a Door Dash account, and a prescription bottle labeled Methadone.

Trail leading to Council Crest Park in Southwest Portland covered in fallen leaves. A trail marker on a post guides hikers walking on the trail that is part of the 4T, a hike one can do in Portland where they travel on trail, tram, trolley, and train.

Sign post on SW Jefferson spotlit by stray sunlight on a blisteringly cold and stormy autumn day in Portland, OR. Around the post, a curved stone wall serves as a seating area. In the background, a person walks past a bus stop while another crosses the street. Autumn foliage covers the top of the frame with hues of orange and yellow. Fallen leaves are scattered on the sidewalk.

Moviegoers exit Laurelhurst Theater, a cinema in SE Portland known for showing mainly indie films. A couple walks away from the theater holding an umbrella. A person locks up their bicycle on the rack in front of the theater as others exit the theater after seeing a movie. An employee works the box office. 

The marquee advertises times for Frankenstein, One Battle After Another, Springsteen, Good Fortune, and Bugonia. The theater's massive neon display in the shape of a peacock unfurling its wings is bright even against this late afternoon stormy sky. Laurelhurst is written in neon, traveling vertically between lines radiating outward. Two cursive Ls frame the neon above the marquee, which reveals another set of neon underneath the marquee.

No worries. I walked into the scene when they were already screaming at each other, but it seemed like they had a previous confrontation and this was a case of a property owner trying to control who is on the street outside of the property.

Every photo has alt text. In short, a building owner didn't like the people outside "his building" when he exited the building and started a confrontation with the group in the photo.

A man who "owns this building" wearing all black and holding a skateboard in NE Portland confronts people hanging outside of the building on the street, yelling profanities at them thinking it will make them disperse. The three people he's yelling at yell back. One of them is recording the confrontation on their phone. Another person in the group wearing a pink backpack holds a library book with the title "The Day Portland Died".

Someone looks at their phone in an empty office found in the Standard Plaza Building in Downtown Portland. Their silhouette is contrasted against a wall of autumnal foliage pouring through the glass windows. Several offices remain vacant in Downtown Portland post pandemic. This is only one example.

Above the trees, the famous Portland, Oregon White Stag sign and Old Town water tower. Hillside, a neighborhood in NW Portland, seems faded from overcast skies in the distance.

Bicyclist and runner on the Eastbank Esplanade at sunset. The trees rising above the path are spotlit by the setting sun, their leaves burning with autumnal foliage. A literal fire is burning in the distance somewhere in Central Eastside.

I just gave them all 0s after being solicited to take a Lightroom survey and reprimanded them for not supporting professionals that want to use other cloud storage than CC. The AI features they keep adding are cringe at best. Just let me upscale a damn photo without artifacts but nooooo.
