Oh Charles, please stop using those fancy effects on your iPhone. The results are just so, so silly.

Portland...Seattle's future?

Suburbs winning regional diversity race

A review of 2010 Census data shows sizable growth in Portland’s Latino and Asian populations, but those groups grew even more swiftly in most of the suburbs. Portland’s black population grew only slightly in the last decade, while its Native American population fell 7.5 percent.

Portland went from 75.5 percent white in 2000 to 72.2 percent in 2010, making little progress in shaking its image as one of the nation’s whitest, least diverse big cities. In contrast, the proportion of minorities rose more briskly in 15 of 19 suburbs in the tricounty area.

The reasons are varied, but Portland has the region’s most expensive housing, and hasn’t kept pace with the suburbs in job gains.

Should have cropped out the skyline, or else taken the picture with more of it showing. It's just a bad, bad photo as it is.

I think the almost Clifford Stillesque composition makes it.

Just because your phone can take pictures doesn't mean you're a photographer. Or that you need to post your crappy photos for anyone else to see.

No clue what the point of posting this snapshot could be.
