Primary colors, Brooklyn, New York City, New York, 2011

Yellow and blue are primary colors. This yellow truck was parked along Brooklyn’s Third Avenue. I knew that if waited, I would be able to find a blue background as traffic flowed past it. It was only a matter of a minute or two until a bus bearing a blue advertisement passed the truck. Amazingly, the ad also featured trapeze artists that caught just as they flew over the window of the parked truck. The result is a strikingly incongruous image, featuring contrasting primary colors and an improbable subject relationship.

Have fun at the Cirque, Iris. I am sure you will enjoy any entertainment that is designed especially for you!
I don't know much about the showitself, but I understand it is a combination of theatre, circus, gymnastics, and dance, and it will no doubt be bathed in primary colors and richly improbably subject relationships.

I'm going to he Cirque Du Soleil tonight......it is called "IRIS". How could I not see it? I look forward to an experience of "primary colors" and "improbable subject relationships". For me, your image is a hopeful one!
