Kind Of Blue

From the statue of Mile Davis is Alton Illinois.... The background is a banner that was hanging across the street (the back side of said banner).

"Kind of Blue" refers (of course) to the ultra classic 1959 album by Miles Davis...

Blue tone added using Topaz B&W Filter

I didn't know there was a statue of Miles Davis in Alton. My high school band director talked about him all the time and made us listen to his records in Jazz Band.

Superb silhouette!

This is super (and also fits the baby blue or askew theme competition)

Very nice. I like the sillhouette of the trumpet and the blue background. Was he playing the blues too?
