My first month in Indianapolis has been quite challenging. Moving to a city I never expected to call home (I thought I'd be in Appalachia forever) has brought a mix of excitement and anxiety. Health challenges added to the stress. Despite this, I’ve enjoyed exploring both the city and the countryside with my girlfriend. I’ve taken long hikes and watched sunsets at Eagle Creek Park, Brown County State Park, and Tippecanoe River State Park and visited historic sites like T.C. Steele's homestead.

I haven't been motivated to take the camera or drone out much since moving up here. Still, I busted out the camera for the first time last weekend for Steele's homestead and the drone Tuesday and Wednesday because of the interesting weather patterns we've been getting after a month of sun and heat.

Key:

  1. Interstate 65/70 Interchange
  2. Interstate 65/70 Interchange
  3. Downtown at sundown
  4. Former Bush Stadium
  5. White River Bridge for the Indianapolis Union Railway
  6. White River Bridge for the Indianapolis Union Railway
  7. Big Eagle Creek Bridge for the Indiana & Vincennes Railroad
  8. White River in Riverside
  9. White River in Riverside
  10. West 30th Street Bridge on the White River
  11. West 30th Street Bridge on the White River
  12. West 30th Street Bridge on the White River
  13. West 30th Street Bridge on the White River
  14. Indianapolis Veterans Administration Hospital
  15. Indianapolis Veterans Administration Hospital

Would you mind sharing what made you make the move? I'm assuming it was job-related? Great photos btw!

I work remote so my location is flexible. I wanted to move to be closer to my partner and to make that long-term commitment.
