Great shot - IMO it could be made even better with the top vehicles and the left electrical boxes eliminated. Note: having seen so much of your GREAT work in B&W I am curious as to how this looks in B&W and why you chose to display in color.

I should have commented on this before. I am extremely curious about the departure into colour. I'm trying to learn more about colour in street myself and would be interested in your thoughts. I'm not sure about the image itself, but it feels slightly over-saturated.

Color is something I wanted to do for awhile. I didn't like it in B&W.

Mike: I am very happy that someone as accomplished as yourself is entertaining the addition of Color to Street Photography. Please keep them coming - I know I will learn plenty from your color postings.

Thank you.

I just bought a Polaroid camera and will be ordering film soon too. Speaking of film, I'm going to buy two film cameras and have one set up for day and one for night. I just bought a large amount of Tmax-400, Fuji Neopan 1600 and Delta 3200 film. I don't want to limit myself to digital or even just B&W.

Actually the saturation wasn't raised that much. They just got done treating that grass. I'm just starting to figure out color myself so i will have to get back to you on that, .
