Again sorry for the delay.
Great images every one, thank you for participating!
M_Six - I gather that this is a PO or City Hall. Vintage building with "cool" blue illumination. Nice way to "rock" on the ol' limestone.

texkam- I feel the pain in his voice! Wondeful candid.

OldCrow- I really dig images with lots of negative space! Very ethereal shot.

just whistle I love the shallow DOF on this shot, making the bluebird really stand out!

airfrogusmc Your street photography is right up there with Winogrand! It amazes me that you eye catches the details such as the blue stripes on the tat and the bench, knowing full well that you have but a split second to frame and shoot!

With that said, My nod goes to airfrogusmc, nicely done Allen!

HM's to texham and just whistle...

Take it away Allen!

Thanks again for the participation all!

Good choice. I'm always amazed by Allen's street photography. Well done.

Kudos to Lesley and texkam.

Ed, Old Main is the administration building at Eastern Illinois University.
