Street photography in Coral Gables, FL. Taken just before the photo in the comment below, of the mentally ill, or homeless man, who was singing a love song. I felt that the two photographs went together somehow.

This image is part of my photo essay. I'll be posting more of the series - it all goes together as an essay and as I add photos in the series, I am adding them to my photo essay set: "Life On Different Levels"

All critical feedback and critiquing as always is invited. If you have time view the slideshow of "Life On Different Levels".


I'm open to all feedback and help in learning. It's very different when viewed large. I like how the softness and beauty and depth of color of the rose petals contrast with the harshness and cold of the tile, the sidewalk and the peeling paint. And I like how the red rose petals echoes the red couch in the doorway-- and contrasts with the pink of the door. I think this was the doorway of a beauty parlor. The rose petals were just there waiting to be photographed.

Seems like a good time of year also to pause and remember the homeless and mentally ill (see photos below- part of this series of street photography)
