Melissa -- Alleyways can be be full of all kinds of interesting colors, textures, etc. I always check out alleyways when I am out and about with my camera. thanks for your comment -- barbara
What an eye you have!! Your title page is so neat too. Were the water fountains running like that all by themselves? or did you use both hands and feet to get that flow of water. :)
This fountain had constant running water.No turn on with hands or feet. Portland is very much into sustainability -- so I thought -- isn't this a waste of water? I really need to find out if this water is re-sent to the treatment plant or what? thanks for the nice comment -- barbara
Tabor -- Taking photos is one of my favorite things to do -- Always enjoy your photos of wildlife. Would like to get into wildlife photography a bit but for now I am content on what I find "takes my eye." thanks --- barbara
Love this image. The colors and the utilitarian aspect are wonderful.

DeleteI like the lintels, like bushy eyebrows.
ReplyDeleteJoanne -- Yes, now that you mention it they do rather look like bushy eyebrows. Glad you made this comment about them -- thanks barbara.

DeleteThe most interesting subjects are most often found a little off-track. Nice depth and colours.
ReplyDeleteRuneE -- Many times I am drawn to the off-track subjects -- they appear to be remnants of the past to me. thanks for the nice comment -- barbara
DeleteNice shot! I adore alleys -- and wish that they were still a normal part of city/suburb planning.
