Game Day

You’re in Steelers Country! When the Pittsburgh Steelers play, black and gold color the city. In fact, it’s easy to spot black and gold any day. Pittsburgh loves its sports teams! I rarely do street photography, but I couldn’t resist when I spotted this spirited young Steelers fan. I snapped this a few months back; and since the Steelers battle the Denver Broncos this afternoon for a spot in the AFC Championship game on the road to the Super Bowl, it's my post for today. Go Steelers!

I like viewing this image best on the black background.

Great street photography! The pants are so bold - I love them.

The figure certainly makes an interesting spot of colour and pattern.

Great street capture! What eccentric clothing! Love it.

@kategoring Thanks so much, Kate! I was photographing a fountain when I saw this guy walk by, so I quickly turned and just snapped.

I was so pulling for the Steelers - love this shot - he was definitely one of the more colorful fans out there! Quite neat on black.

[Gena Pegg]

How fun is this! Perfect timing also.

@milaniet Thank you, Milanie! We were sad to see them lose. It would have been fun for our city to have them move forward.

@eyesmile Many thanks, Gena! :-)
