Nice lines, both vertical and horizontal. I like the vibrant colours from the signs and the tangled branches of the trees which contrast with the architecture.

A nice mix of the man-made and nature!

Thanks, Keith. I saw it much the same way -- the buildings and signs creating a stage for the dancing trees. In my 70s but still a child, I guess.

The trees certainly soften the lines of the building. I wonder what they're like eleven years on? Either gone, or the branches are yards higher and don't offer that function any more.

Unfortunately, I no longer remember where this is, so I can't check on a map site. The building next door to where I lived in Toronto took down four full-grown trees and replaced then with shrubs (and the lawn with rocks) so anything is possible.

Great use of contrasting colours, John. I love the way you have divided the frame into vertical layers. Kindest regards, Joe

Thank you very much, Joe, I hadn't thought of that.

Superb shot and POV!

Thanks, William.

I'm also in my 70s John...........and my view is that "growing old is compulsory, while growing up is optional".

great compo

Have a nice day!

Thanks, Annemarie.

It is a nice picture. There is a lot of geometry. It definitely benefits from the trees.

Thanks, TLC. Trees tend to be more interesting in the winter, I think. For one thing, they have a bigger backdrop.

Great minds think alike, eh?
