Sorry, a little late posting today, don't feel all that great today!
Another shot of Chinatown, in New York City. This is one of my favorites from the trip. Just for the reflections and colors! Hope you like it!

Nice one Linda, I like that you caught some people in the middle to foreground on the right, That really brings the eye through the whole shot.
Great work and feel better!

Awesome reflections, great colors and nice rule of thirds. I am sorry you aren't feeling all that well today Linda; I ran three miles yesterday, and I am recooperating to run three more today! I decided to become healthier. :)
Anyways about your picture- I love the lights and tones. I wouldn't change a thing. Have a great day!

Nice colors and reflections. the colors are bright but the blacks in the picture look grey maybe more contrast would fix it. how we ever made it back to the bus in the crowds and rain I don't know!

Sorry to hear that you're under the weather. The rain really does intensify everything in this picture. I too like the reflections. A really great shot of daily life. TFS

Hi Calamity,
Excellent reflections on this rainy day event. Sparling colours a fine daily life impression of China Town NY (once visited in 1998).
Great posting my dear.

Hello Linda
Hope you are doing better...
I do love the couple on the right running for cover... even if they have an umbrella! All the wonderful bright colors you where able to catch is really nice...

Tricia

Wonderful reflections Linda and such rich colours even with the rain. Well composed and I love the wee bit of motion blur on the couple scurrying across the road. TFS,
David
