Walking with your feet ten feet off of Beale

Who goes to Memphis without visiting Beale St.?

It was so cold outside! This was our last night in Memphis (but I promise not the last shot!) and I'm really dissappointed in how some of the photos came out this night. It was so cold, I was having a hard time holding the camera still. Plus, this part of Memphis is covered with prostitutes and homeless men who beg for cigarettes and money. I wasn't very comfortable setting up my tripod for that reason.

I still got some good ones, though. Maybe not as many as I'd like but some. This place was virtually empty the night we went. However, the music was still loud, the smell of beer still carried into the streets and not one restaraunt/bar on Beale St. was closed.
