RESULTS
Fewer entries than I expected for this theme, but thanks to the three who did take up the challenge. You're all winners!
First place: Trumper, "Next doors cat and one of our dogs at ours LOL
"Photos of cats and dogs getting along aren't unusual, but I liked the arrangement of color areas in yours, made by the bright and dark bedding and the mottled coats of the pets. Composition was a big plus.
Second place: M_Six, "Lots of neighbors"
Nice clean shot of urban architecture. Lots of neighbors, indeed! How many of one's neighbors in these beehive structures would become close neighbors?
Third place: Maureen Souza, "I Love My Neighbors"
Those are charming neighbors you have. They look like sweet creatures with personality. It'd be interesting to know the story, how these residents came to live in your neighborhood.
