A Touch of Color

"Colour does not have to dominate the frame to be effective. The degree of impact a small area of isolated color has depends to a large extent on the hues that surround it"
John Hedgecoe

I got this quick shot crossing Church at Market at about 10 am --snapped for an instant pause when the angle of the shot allowed the bouquet to conceal the angel mural to reduce clutter and emphasize the plain muted contrasting beige stucco around the bouquet. The little icon for walking signal present and interesting visual diversion secondary to the splash of pink
