This was a street in Madrid at noon. The street looked lonely. The city looked lonely. It was so hot outside that people either stayed at home or went to other cooler places. A person with a bright red bag gave the whole picture a bit of a different color. Loneliness is beautiful, and so is vibrancy.
While wandering around Germany one early summer morning, I came across this particularly interesting fountain statue. Even more amazing, I was surprised to find a rainbow. I tried to involve the interesting 3 vivid figures as well as the rainbow in my work with this photo. This place seemed to be a paradise where the main characters played with the rainbow. modern buildings in the background paled in comparison. Discover the beauty of life. Beauty is all around us. I thank the people I love, mlkz.
