Thnking...thinking...

Not sure which of these I liked most. I loved his focus and concentration in this one, and his decisiveness in making his move in the other, which I was watching through the viewfinder and may not be so apparent here.

Saturday on the 16th Street Mall in Denver. Street musicians and other colorful sorts abound.

Like every city, we have homeless folks. I liked his eyes zeroing in on something in this shot.

Spring is sort of late this year, sidewalk cafes aren't quite the rage yet, at least here.

These are rather common photos to take, but I am rather happy that I did this one without a tripod at 2 seconds. Could be sharper, but it's not bad.

Boulevard of Dreams

While I was processing this, I couldn't quite figure out what it reminded me of. But then it finally occurred to me, the famous painting called Boulevard of Broken Dreams (Google it). Since this is a library, I decided to call it, just Boulevard of Dreams.

A bit of post processing fun.

Went to a skateboarding competition at our local park today and tonight. Got some fun stuff to work with, but thought I'd post one from it for your viewing pleasure.

I didn't get the sequence I'd hoped for to do tonights photo, maybe tomorrow will be better. I like how this came out in black and white however. The light was just at sunset.
