Oh wow Dolores this is outstanding. I love all of those colors and then you have a person walking into the beautiful composition what more could you have asked for. Excellent work just excellent. #139660Evy Johansen July 10, 2003

Great work Dolores- waiting for the women to walk by really added to an already wonderful capture! - Gunther #139725Gerda Grice July 10, 2003
Wow!! The artwork is very colourful and pleasing and you've captured it with such amazing sharpness and clarity that I'd feel certain I was looking at the piece itself, rather than at a photograph of it, if it weren't for the kid walking by it on the sidewalk! Super shot! #139741Gabriela Cunha July 11, 2003
WOW! love this!Lem Metro July 11, 2003

Great work as always Dolores!! You continue to astound me with your jaw dropping images!! #139842Ronald Balthazor July 11, 2003
Normally a subject in a red shirt would really stand out against such a subdued background. I can hardly find her in this image for some reason. ;)Carolyn M. Fletcher July 11, 2003

Gary H. Minish July 27, 2003
An amazing mural and an exeptional photo of it! I love how the girl becomes just another part of the mural! If it wasn't for her feet on the sidewalk, she could have been painted in! Great timing and a great shot, Dolores :-) #151417Dolores Neilson July 27, 2003
HI Gary!! Thank you so much for that!! I actually thought of getting her in the mural...but after careful circumspection...I didn't think I'd have a successful PS experience. I'm really not good enough at it yet. I'm thankful for all the praise!! Thank You!! #151421Susana Matos August 05, 2003
congratulations on the Steve´s D. selection!Dolores Neilson August 05, 2003
Hi again, Susana! Thank you so much! For once again praising my work! I am flattered that you would give me so much time!I feel the way you do about images...I love emotional impact. Sometimes though, images celebrate color...and the artistry of others...which is what this image was about for me. I can't imagine how many hours it must have taken this artist to paint this huge wall mural...and the successful blending of all these wonderful bright colors appealed to me so. As always, a pleasure to hear from you! #157870

Yikes! Better than a strong cup of coffee! #157877Susana Matos August 05, 2003

HI Damian! Thank you so much! I've never had a cup of coffee...but I'll take that as a compliment!Hello again, Susana! Here is a work by an artist who's work I love...his name is Pete Turner.
