Nice symmetry here.
ReplyDeleteLove the symmetry of this piece, even down to the colours of the camisas of the two men. This is a wonderful forerunner of "entry" for the February theme.
ReplyDeleteThat's just about perfect! I'm both impressed and jealous!
ReplyDeleteGreat capture Jack. Love it.
ReplyDeleteVery nice composition. We've been through this area many times in the past and you've certainly captured the feel of the place! Well done!
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautifully composed photo! As for those tomatoes, I think they need to import some Midwestern soil. I haven't had a good tomato since I moved to from Illinois.
ReplyDeleteJohn's comment is correct. This shot is perfect.
ReplyDeleteA perfect composition!
ReplyDeletePerfect composition indeed, Jack!! A unique capture as always! I'd love to visit that market, I could use some fresh fruit and veggies!! Wishing you a great weekend! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI like this photo a LOT! What a bonus to have someone wearing red ride by on a bike!
ReplyDeleteThe lines of the stairs are fascinating!
ReplyDeleteThat's an incredibly good slice of life photo but I wouldn't have associated this with a farm community.
ReplyDeleteAs you may have seen, there'll be a surprise on VDP tomorrow.
Super shot, Jack!
ReplyDeleteLove this pic Jack with it's perfectly placed touches of red. One moment later and Mr Red-cap would have cycled off the scene.
ReplyDeleteI saw him two blocks away and waited for him to arrive where I wanted him.
ReplyDeleteI agree about the symmetry.
ReplyDeleteReally like the symmetry in the architecture and simple rhythms in the color. And I learned something.
ReplyDeleteSo you stalk? :-)
