Great shot Brad! Congrats!
I had a feeling that I've seen this row before but wasn't sure. Now I am. If I remember correctly, this street is called Hope Str, right? I took a similar photo some years ago in my film days with this row of boxes and the street sign above.

Edit: Darn, just read your comments - it is Hope str, of course, and your Serendipity entry (which I hadn't seen before) is almost identical to that photo of mine which I mentioned above.

Thanks to everyone and especially to Neuferland for comments and critique. I think, my experiment (see above) worked - nobody accused me of being off-topic, and I found that about half of the viewers liked the colors and another half found them tacky and unnatural. Of course they are unnatural, that was the whole idea, if I kept the original sky color it would be one booooring photograph. Surprizingly, over a span of the past week I more-less made peace with the colors here, so while for me they still ARE tacky, the overall package kinda works, not as a photograph, but as a piece of pop-art. I can see it on a wall in some New York Upper West Side apartment :)

I like the composition, but I think it is over-saturated, esp. the sky...

what does it have to do with perspective?

I think the shadows on the ground (esp. the shadow of the photographer, the other one is kind of nice) somewhat distract from the nice perspective of the alley. If you could step in the shadow and take a phot with only one shadow, it would be much stronger IMO.

nice colors and DOF. I wish the arch in the foreground wouldn't be cut at the top.

Walking on Water or What?

the boots should've been mage sharp (deeper DOF)

you should've made sure that hand is in sharp focus - need a deeper DOF (smaller aperture).

nice capture

Quite a Pickle

interesting concept, but you should've made sure that foreground is in focuse there. The composition is a buitt too crammed to my taste. I'd remove the white jug on the right and the bottle with orange stuff on the left
