pastel shades work well for the hazy distance but subtract from the impression of heat on the foreground flowers...

fantastic tableau - don't see a whole lot of heat but I can understand there has to be some involved in a steam engine

I was just thinking you need a posthumous clone if you're going to get proper recognition for this jewel, then I saw you got an upsydaisy award. Congrats. Earned.

According to my encyclopedic knowledge of flora (me and the encyclopedias have an agreement about who needs to know all that stuff), this is the same sort of death-defying pansy as I have in my all-time highest scoring shot - self seeded and magnificently failing to respond to our messages about how it is not required to grow this year.

It's a great shot and it smacks the challenge description right between the eyes. Seriously under- appreciated.

Street Duo - Nicollet Mall, Minneapolis

You got people points from me. It's an odd sort of category, 'cityscapes'. It sort of means urban landscape photography, which gives you all the skyline shots, fair enough... But it's not really a city without people, is it?

Great shot. Long may they busk.
