Theme Day: My Street

It's the first of the month and time for City Daily Photo's monthly theme day. "My Street" is the theme we selected this time (democratically, as always).

I won't tell you much about my street because it's our private Brigadoon. We love living here. We have the most wonderful neighbors, and we know we're fortunate to have found this quiet, friendly spot to call home.

City Daily Photo has a new website, where you can find daily photo blogs from all over the world. The new site administrators continue to shine it up as a work in progress. Take a look at today's theme participants, or pick a blog in a remote land and explore.

  8. No wonder you don't want to say too much about your street. You surely don't want to have strangers invading such a peaceful place do you?!

  10. One of these days I'd like to do a group shot of my neighbors. They are the best.

    LOL, one year ago today we exited our houses to find our street blocked by trees--huge ones--that came down in a massive wind storm. We've lost a few more since, those that suffered damage in the storm but hung on a while. It has changed the street, but there were so many trees to begin with!

    Eric, I thought the same of your Passage!

  14. It's not you all I want to keep out, Paul! Come on over and let's watch the hoodlums together!

  15. Nice lighting and evening shadows, it looks very inviting. What a different day from this time last year. I don't think I've recovered yet from the shock of that night. At least the tree could be saved and the insurance were incredibly helpful.
