[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Kit gave me another challenge, fingers. I hope this will do as it is only one, but one about to get into trouble, smudging the chalk drawing and getting dirty.

This photo was taken on the Domplatte in front of the Cologne Cathedral, where the chalk artists draw their masterpieces in the morning, leave a bowl for donations from passerbys all day, and come back the next day to do it over as the drawings seem to be swept away over night.

To see this masterpiece, click here.

ISO 200, focal length 28.0 mm, cloned to remove a destracting foot, framed.

I've read your note, on your intro page in which you claim to be a split photo-personality. :)
It happens to me all the time. I'm so impressed when I see some galleries that are recognizebable, uniform, consistent... and feel somethimes ashamed having a little of this and a little of that in my own. But it has it's charme, too! Don't you think so?
In your case I'm impressed with both...the photo-yournalistic images, and with your artistic attempts!

Cheers

Hi Lois- beautiful colors- I like this man's expression as he observes the chalk drawing- I think this should count for chalk and fingers! Nicely done!

Best Wishes,
Steve

Such a delicate gesture with the 'pinky'. Great crop!!!
No more challenges for you - too easy!
Good link to the finished artwork. Some talented people only to have the work disappear overnight. Thank goodness for photography!
Colourful shopping bag ;)

OK - here's one that'll get you all sticky with the effort. I hereby challenge you to ... CHOCOLATE.
