On the sunny side of the street

Less a spot than part of a scene, but still wonderful. Such soft, hazy, blunted light can fill one, or at least me, with abundance and possibility. The street becomes a river, washing about in the hinterlands, casting glimmers off the prominences. The shadowed surroundings are deep and rich. Altogether stirring.
Personal co-favorite of the challenge.

I like the idea but I feel like I'm completely losing data in the shadows on the left. Harsh lighting takes away the impact for me.

I love this too! The photo itself is powerful, but the toning is so beautiful!
