    Great series, Matt! Really like the dusk light in some of the shots. And, of course, Walter Stanley Garcia.

  2. Margaret McLean says:

    We are thinking about moving from New Orleans to Baltimore in a few years. The recent storms were making me have second thoughts until I saw your photos. I still love Hampden. There\’s nothing beautiful about a hurricane, but bring on the snow. Thanks for sharing.

  3. Matt Roth says:

    Thanks Margaret. It doesn’t typically snow that often up here. And it’s pretty temperate year round. I’m a Baltimore fan. …also, come summer, there aren’t as many mosquitos, either.
