Hi Daniel-

I like the colors in the shot and the temporal/seasonal displacement
of a plow sign in the summer.  The sign is a little blurry, though.

Thanks.  Although I was aware of the sign and consciously included it
in the scene, I was concentrating on the building colors and the cabs
as I was focusing.

This is a very interesting scene; colorful and nicely composed.  The item that 
provided the title is a bit OOF, though.

There are a couple of things I like in it, such as the colors.

I don't quite see what the intent of the photo is though.  Is it just a street 
scene? Is it supposed to be a juxtaposition of the sign with taxis?

Good question.  For me it was the reference to snow plowing on a
beautiful summer's day.  Also, I was trying to get a different shot of
the multicolored hotel in the background, putting it in context of the
city around it.

I apologize for my odd spelling mistake in the title of the post.  G

That was another shot I saw hiding in there. Those were many of the colors I 
liked.

Maybe trying a crop of basically the left half of the frame, so it's of the 
hotel, rather than the shiny building on the right side of the frame would help 
bring more attention to the pretty hotel.

Thanks, Larry.  This is the shot I took of the building itself:

http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=11070243

In my original post, I was trying to show the building in its context,
how the splashes of color jump out of the busy scene of the street
below, but I agree that it did not really center strongly enough on
the building itself.
