I can see why you are still hooked on this edgy filter, Michelle. It adds the "C" in City! Speaking of "C" (See) it's such a treat to come to your gallery to see and feel the heart beat of the "C"ity. You are a natural at this type of people/action/happenings stuff and it's your thang baby! This is a great capture with perfect timing. I hope that wasnt a drug deal going on on the left side but if it was, that is part of the heart beat, too. Lol... :)))) Great job as always! -Laura #11161613

P.S. Likely they are TEXTING. Maybe drug dealing is pasay on the streets now? Heehee... #11161614

Isn't it good to see the streets as you know them, not all pulled down for the new modern look. Great treatment of this street scene=^..^= #11179354
