San Antonio, Texas: A Photographic Portrait

San Antonio is an ancient city with a bright future. Obsessive about its history, the Alamo City has carefully crafted its environment around its river, conserving great architecture, maintaining beautiful flora, and celebrating its vibrant culture. The Alamo and its four sister missions have been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Amidst reverence for its storied past, San Antonio has always had its eye on the horizon, constantly reinventing neighborhoods and districts to incorporate the most recent influx of visionaries, scientists, teachers, and creatives. From the River Walk to industry, San Antonio enters the next 300 years with confidence and verve. A native son, Al Rendon has made a life-long career of photographing San Antonio and its culture. This is an intimate portrait of a much beloved city. All of the famous landmarks are here, along with food, fiestas, and fun.
