Being downtown at the crack of dawn for the start of the Tour de Tucson, and a couple of hours before the next race start, I had plenty of time to check out the empty streets (other than right at the race start).
Nearby is the St Augustine Cathedral, glimmering in the bright morning sun.

The close up views showed great contrasts between shade and sun, as well as highlighting the architecture and landscaping.






The church building is not that old, having been completed in 1968, but it retains those classic Spanish style cathedrals of the southwest and Mexico.
