John, they put these on the hoods now, too. Trying to brighten up the monotony of some streets filled with yellow streaming by. -tv

It has to be the trunk ... imagine staring at this for 10 hours a day. Only in a highly competitive business does it drive a need to paint something so radically to get noticed. Just another colorful comment about NY from TV. John

It's the composition and bright colors of this abstract that catches my eye not so much the leading lines. Nice shot!! shu

Oops, Doug. You and the Cat are right. Me and Charlie are wrong. Must be my defective memory and....!? -tv

You sure you weren't just walking backwards Tommy? I think I see some rear defroster lines in that glass (subtle leading lines?), a lack of wiper blades, and maybe a brake light. The pic is working for me whether it's coming or going none the less. Like the painting with what looks like brush strokes. Nice entry. -COAmature

Thanks guys. The bloke is actually in front, but the taxi has no where to go because traffic is stopped. New Yorkers are aggressive jaywalkers since it is not enforced ($50 fine, I think.) -tv

Nice! Great Vibrant colors with bold lines!!
Actually the person is behind the taxi (I think) :)

You mean that a NY taxi would actually stop to let a person walk in front?? :). Bright colors, with all lines leading to the flower's center. Nice shot.
