In Immokalee I spotted a bored man in a white shirt and another in a red shirt sitting on steps The symmetry and the tedium appealed to me. Then I saw a man in a red shirt on a bicycle, two blocks away. I waited for him to enter the scene and get to a spot that balanced the first red-shirted man.
I clicked the shutter. It isn't a flashy image, just a simple glimpse of ordinary life, but I liked it.

On the first day of the New Year, City Daily Photo bloggers show their best (or favorite) photograph of the previous year. I showed this photo in January 2014. Other CDP bloggers are
showing their own "Photo of the Year" here.
Oh yes, I remember this photo very well !
