Un écho de la couleur verte (Weekend Street/Reflections # 285)


 Paris, France

I snapped this photo roughly 16 years ago on Rue de Rennes, yet I am still struck by the accidental symphony of green that seems to echo down the street. Once you spot the RATP bus and the boy running with the balloon, you notice the color everywhere: the overhead traffic lights, people's clothing, plants, the hotel and other signs, street bins, the glowing pharmacy crosses in the distance, and even a few minor green reflections.

Green is fine, but my favorite color has always been blue.😎

  2. Good luck. I don't want Spain to win because of that kid being a jerk when they got the second goal. Why would his parents not stop him? How embarrassing for him...

  3. I really like the action aspect of this photo, if the people and cars weren't in it, i would think it was the setting on an old fashioned photo, have a nice weekend.
