    Nice composition. Looks like a great place to catch up with friends for a coffee of beer.

    Thanks! I had my tripod set up and was photographing the street mainly because of the color and flowers etc. I had a long lens on camera so these guys were more than a block away when photographed. When I looked at it on my computer later, I thought this is awesome, I could not have asked models to do better. Typical Calgary, the hats, one guy looking at his watch, the other checking his shopping and the interaction of the fourth looking over to the others. They had all been shopping at Llammele's (a famous Western wear shop.) Ironically, they are probably, German tourists! Ha! Ha! I like the photo though, it captures the vibrancy of downtown perfectly, I think. Calgary is a very urban, white collar community yet we hold fast to our 'western' culture.

    There's something about the fellow looking at his watch and the fact that the viewer of the image knowing that it was 5:20 that makes this one sorta magical.

    Good job.

    When I look at it again after reading your comment, I'd have to agree. I didn't see that before though
