So much to be said for ordinary life as it goes by.

Good shot.

Leah J. Utas said...

I understand why, David.

Yes, Messymimi. In the ordinary we find the extraordinary. Thanks.

All those vertical and horizontal lines--at least two striped shirts to go with the building lines--in such complex balance. For me, the focus of the picture was the V of green shrubs near the lamp post. I think the woman sweeping should have been, but she didn't stand out as much from the other vertical humans and brooms as the green did. (The ironwork added to the complexity of patterns.) Loved it all.

A real moment in time caught so beautifully.

Solarity, thanks for the breakdown of the pic. I'd never considered those aspects of it.
Glad you like it.

Hello, Daft Scots Lass, glad to meet you. Thanks.
