Wow, what a lovely area to look at - I like this one the best with all the colors. Bet this would make a great place for some street photo opps with random people walking by - might luck out and capture some interesting interaction of people and the art on the walls - i.e. the eyes here in this picture being in the center on either end a group of people (feeling would be 'alone in the crowd').

The B&W suits this photo perfectly - allows us to bleakness of the scene. We wonder about the lone man in the wheelchair and why he has ventured out into the cold.

O.K. now I am wondering what was so interesting about the box? Looks like there is a tree painted on the side but not sure. And the pose is the mark of a photographer for who else is willing to contort, to lay down, to stretch, to go the length and breath just to get the shot:-)

LOL, good eye to spot this;-) I wonder how many other murals there were/are in the area.

I really like the processing with the added border. It makes me feel like I am viewing the scenery from a cabin window on a train.

And they walked in unison, two by two. Love this umbrella scene - never seen wet snow dusting the tops of umbrellas. Gotta keep the coffee warm somehow I guess:-) I keep staring at this capture not just for the well timed 2's that are here but also because I am trying to figure out just what IS that mural/grafetti behind them. It certainly adds a punch of color to the scene.

Burr, I can feel the cold wafting in with those low and heavy clouds sweeping into the scene.

Look at the colorful trees - makes me think Dr. Suess and I don't know exactly why. Very decorative scene with the colorful trees and I love the snowfall (I'm sure when you are in it you quickly get sick of it) for it paints a pleasing picture of 'winter wonderland'

Great catch on the rider - he does have a sideways glance that makes it look as if he is watching us watching him. B&W tones and processing is great.
