[Dave Green]

That sure is Yeller! Yeller as a yeller thing that tripped over the yeller bucket and got yellered!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Not sure what a sharpie is, but it must be big to fit in there! The best bit is the yellow spots on the ground.

 

[Pete Askew]

I know, they were a real bonus! A Sharpie is a brand of waterproof marker pen. We use them in the lab but they certainly aren't as big as the one in that window!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

That's proper Post-It Note yellow Pete - saturated doesn't even begin to describe it

Love the yellow dots on the ground that echo the wall color

 

[Brian Moore]

Not sure what a sharpie is,

Its a dug fae China, Rob, wi' big lugs and bigger rolls o' fat a' ower its boadie!


Oh,...speaking of big lugs,...bonnie fotie, Pete. Love the colors!

For some reason I really like the light and the way the conduit bends around the door frame, I don't think the photo would be the same without it.

Is that just me a bit strange?

 

[Pete Askew]

Actually it was the snake-like lamp and conduit that first caught my eye when I was looking at the building. I'd sen it earlier but there was a car parked in front of the door.

 

[Paul Lange]

OK good, it is not just me then.

 

[Vic Shaw]

Nice spot, what time of day was it taken?

 

[Pete Askew]

Thanks Vic. I was in Vancouver for work for a few days and this was shot early afternoon. It was wet and windy with a grey, grey sky though.

 

[Vic Shaw]

pity though, would look great with a little shadow. No chance of a revisit then?

 

[Pete Askew]

Nothing planned, but I see what you mean. I took some later on with a wider angle lens but there are no shadows on them either.

Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah, they were all yellow."

"Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah, they were all yellow."

One of my favorite songs!
