Spectacular colors! Trees in the city - who knew?
Not trying to get you run over or anything, but try this shot from the curb thereby eliminating the traffic. Although the traffic is a nice contrasting element to the leaves and flowers. Dammit! No fair confusing me on a Friday!

@John: Sorry for the confusion!! ;) If it makes you feel any better, I also went through the same thought process as you did (including the concern of getting run over). I ended up going with this one, because (as you indicated) I liked the stillness and beauty of the sidewalk view against the morning rush on the street. I felt a bit like it was capturing two different worlds. Thank you for your input!!

Oh wow, this is grand. It's a streetscape worth its weight in gold.

Great streetscape that you've captured here with lot's of fall color. What a coincidence to see two yellow vehicles to occupy the right-hand side. Good use of thirds here.

@Steven: Thank you! I noticed the yellow cars as well...I thought how kind it was that they showed up just in time to add a bit of color coordination to the shot :)
@Busted: Thanks!!!! Yup, it's very pretty around here this time of year :)

Spectacular shot, Bekkah. The detail is incredible. The composition is perfect. The colors are glorious. I love the leaves on the sidewalk and the flowers in the pots. Bravo.

A gorgeous section of sidewalk and tree to make such an eloquent "fall" statement. Very well done.
