Visualist Images Photography, Austin Texas » SXSW http://johnrrogers.com Austin Texas Photographer, John Rogers Thu, 26 Jan 2012 23:20:30 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 SXSW 6th Street Party Time, Austin Texas http://johnrrogers.com/sxsw/sxsw-6th-street-party-time-austin-texas/ http://johnrrogers.com/sxsw/sxsw-6th-street-party-time-austin-texas/#comments Sat, 20 Mar 2010 15:36:01 +0000 John Rogers http://johnrrogers.com/?p=1089 It’s been a great week in Austin Texas. The party started with friends and family coming to town for my son Matthew’s wedding. The wedding was spectacular! It was a military wedding in a great outdoor setting. The weather was perfect, the flowers were fabulous, and my new daughter-in-law was radiantly beautiful. Believe it or not, I didn’t take a single photograph. I consciously passed that task to wonderful professionals so that I could just be ‘dad’.
Monday, Matthew & his new bride Jessica left to drive to Alaska where they will be stationed for a few years. I can’t wait to go visit! (Yes, I will take my camera…) This was a great week for family to visit. Sixth Street in Austin Texas is known an one of the great streets in the world to go party. Every year during the international music festival ‘South by Southwest’ it is even more so. This year (2010) St. Patrick’s day fell during SXSW to add even more fuel to the event. My sister & I went down to the ‘party’ just to watch the crowds and take a few photos.
For those that are not aware, if you click on the photo it will take you to my Flickr site where you can see a larger version of the photo.

During the day their are numerous shops and great places to enjoy lunch or just a cup of coffee. Daytime on Sixth Street in fun, however the real action starts after the sun goes down and the music comes out. After all, 6th Street is pretty much the music epicenter of the “Live Music Capitol of the World” aka Austin Texas. You can see my other Austin shots here.

Every year thousands of visitors travel from around the world to attend the Music, Film & Interactive SXSW or ‘South by Southwest’ conferences & Seminars in Austin Texas. I went down to 6th Street Friday night and took a few photos. This one was taken from the balcony of Maggie Mae’s over looking the Blind Pig Pub.
