I walk around the downtown on a daily basis.... seeing important things and lesser things. Some I manage to photograph while others are simply ignored until one bright morning as I was walking around the buildings at the Forks I happened t see this stack of milk crates and being intrigued by the shape and colors I took a photograph.

The milk crates were out in the back with the garbage bins and the other refuse of the day to day activity within the Forks Market but on this day I found them interesting.

Comments by Jan Bjorklund on Sun, 09/25/16 21:56 Taken on a Sunday morning as I walked from here to there and I passed the brightly colored doors of a closed for the day transmission shop.

Comments by Michael Meek on Mon, 09/26/16 17:41 You are liking primary colors today, Jan. And patterns. And enigmas. Comments by Jan Bjorklund on Mon, 09/26/16 19:19 Sunday was such a dull raw day with the wind blowing out of the north and a rain that progresses back and forth between drizzle and drumming on the windows rainfall. And as I looked out the window of my apartment there was the feeling that what little color I could spot on the buildings and in the streets would quickly disappear and by this morning all the colorful fallen leaves had turned to mush. So saying I thought of color for this weeks post and added in some patterns. Comments by Art Sands on Mon, 09/26/16 19:32 Great images - interesting colors and semi-abstract subjects! Comments by Art Sands on Mon, 09/26/16 19:34 Tough call between 1&2. Comments by Art Sands on Mon, 09/26/16 19:45 Had to try a little Photoshop filtering. Comments by Bruce Hunter on Tue, 09/27/16 03:21 I like #2....Even though I know now that those are the doors of a transmission shop, I still a train or bus when I look at the photo. Comments by Ruth Rittichier on Wed, 09/28/16 10:41 #2 really catches my eye. Reminds me of a Klee painting Comments by Jan Bjorklund on Wed, 09/28/16 21:13 a collection of gourds of various shapes and colors... a display from ManyFest. Comments by els mo on Wed, 09/28/16 21:31 Such a lovely time of year. Those gourds are so great in all their colourful shapes and forms!
