    Default Sidewalk Art by Blackberry

    Thought I would get the cell phone party started. This is re-post of one I did a while back. Captured with my Blackberry (now retired) and its 2-MP camera.

    This is kind of a self-portrait I guess. On a pre-work stroll one morning I found this "spray park". Kids had used colored chalk to draw the solar system on the concrete. Since it was just after dawn, there hadn't been any water play to wash it away. I put the sun on my shoulder and took a picture with my phone.

    Processed with Topaz Simplify and cropped a bit at the top.

    Kerry, I like the graphic quality you have here with the cement and the colors are cool too! Looks like you were standing on stilts

    Hey Kerry, Did we see this one? or was it a different one-anyway neat image w/ a punch of color. The shadow is well placed in the frame.

    Denise, I'm not sure now... It may have been the version without the Topaz that I originally posted and that was likely in ETL.

    I love the shadows and the colors, a wonderful composition Kerry.

    My cell phone is so old I don't do photos with it but will enjoy seeing everyone's images.

    I really like this one, Kerry. The bright colors, three shadows, the solar system, the sun on your shoulder - so much to enjoy here!
