San Antonio is one of my favorite places to shoot.
So much history there!
Here are a few of my favorite shots from past visits:

No longer in business - glad I got the shot! |

One of my absolute favorite theatres. The inside is INCREDIBLE. |
|
Casa Rio on the Riverwalk at night |
|
St. Joseph's (also known as St. Joske's - see history of this nickname below) |
|
The Alamo. Its history haunts me and I visit every time I'm in town. |

About St. Joseph's:
In 1944, Joske's of Texas bought the church-owned St. Joseph College a couple of lots away and later made an offer as high as $200,000 to buy the church property, according to the parish history book. The church unanimously refused the deal, a source of pride to this day and the reason for the parish's enduring nickname, St. Joske's.
(How can you not love that?)
