   I love the effect bricks have on B&W shots, Imagine how people will see this in a decade or two 🙂

      Maybe I’ll be lucky enough to go back in 20 years and take another photo. 🙂

   Hong Kong, a very clean sidewalk and a bike parked in front: yup, this is Seattle.

      You’re right. 🙂 I thought the bike added a very Seattle like touch. 🙂

      Thanks, Rusha! I almost didn’t convert this one to B&W because I really like the warm bricks, red sign and the walker’s bright green coat but other details, like the bike, stand out more in monochrome. Maybe I’ll share the color one later but I’m happy to hear you like it this way!

   It’s a difficult choice, color vs. b&w, but I think you made the right one! Although, I’m with you, I like the warm red tones. Looking forward to seeing the color version someday. Wonderful shot!!

   I love that I get to see Seattle from Virginia. I really love this photo. The bike sort of steals the show, but I love the signs and the storefronts, plus the reflections in the window. The depth of the photo and the angle of the shot are really nice, too. Yes, I said love three times (now four).

   Very clever shot, Lisa. As Sukiesoriginal said, it looks a bit like Melbourne. Very similar to the Chinatown not far from my place. Great BW. It isn’t garish, like how some of them can be 🙂

      Thanks, Mabel! I liked how the view captured a little of the Chinatown vibe without feeling over-the-top and hearing you enjoyed it means a lot to me. 🙂

       Thanks, Amy! I was glad the street was quiet so I could take my time lining up the shot. 🙂
