    The first one is great, Don. People will say it needs to be leveled but I think the tilt works here for some reason.
    Keep Shooting!

    Re: Safety Patrol Girl

    Don, I love this continued series from the bus window. It really is amazing what all we can miss when we aren't aware. The top is by far the better shot, to me it is just so real with the colors of the building and the girl just sticking out like a sore thumb against it as a backdrop.

    Nice job

    The first is a very good example of how colour or the lack of it can make or break a photograph (in this case makes) and the second looks like it is a perfect example of how a safety patrol girl should be in better control.

    Great sharpness and color in the first image. I also think the composition is really nice and I always like images that have just a few elements. (I do think it does need just a slight straightening to the right).

    A keeper.

    The second image pales by comparison.
    No, I DON'T need that.

    Thanks guys. Actually, that boxy utility pole thing was tilted. The sidewalk is as level as I could make it.
