Interesting. I think the choice of B&W fits this one as it looks as if his images are black and white. Was this taken on a holiday or Sunday? That looks like major entrance to a high end building that he’s blocking.

Sandy: Can’t say that the art appeals to me but your image does. Good choice for the B&W and a very nicely captured street scene. >=))>

Hi Dennis - this WAS a weekend, I think, with not many people on the street. The scene was mostly black and white, but the image of Kurt Cobain (large drawing on the right) had yellow arrows around the eyes that didn’t fit my vision for this, so I de-saturated.
