Easy Street

CLondon52w38: Your Neighborhood

From the C.London website: “Whether it be a crowded city street, or a quaint neighborhood diner’s sign, there’s something unique about where you live. Find that element of interest and highlight it with either context or isolation.”

I got the OK from Chelsea to switch timing for w37 & w38 prompts.

Not having flown my drone for quite awhile, I thought it would be a good opportunity for this prompt to photograph my neighborhood context from above. Easy access to shops, restaurants and the forest preserve makes for some pretty convenient living.

Sign Of The Times #1

CLondon52w17: Monochrome (alternate)

When walking around the neighborhood with the intent of making a photograph for the CLondon 52 Week Monochrome challenge, I saw this yellow sign in the window of a rundown strip shopping center. The yellowish brick triggered the monochromatic thought.

It was a coin toss between using this photo & the b/w one submitted as my primary choice. This image better aligns with my favorite genre, however the b/w photo chosen won the toss.
