Taken with N9 and Camera+



Cropped and color/contrast adjusted a little with gallery editor.

Some local public art.

Before the growth of suburbia in the mid 20th century, public art installed both by private and public entities was quite common here. But the featurelessness of the suburbs curtailed that. Fortunately, by the 1990s, this was addressed both with various initiatives promoting both publicly and privately funded works. Some are more popular than others. I skipped the better known stuff and braved the Canada Geese and their leavings to get a shot of this abstract piece.

Also, just for fun, including a second unedited non-competition entry because I thought it was cool to see this shot got photo-bombed by a great blue heron tn the background.
