The Odd Couple

Sitting on the median on Harrison Street. Captures the grittiness we're seeing as a result of snow, cold, and no new snow to cover up the grime.

[Dione Giorgio]

Beautifully processed in B&W. Hard times at the moment.

[Sheila]

The title made me laugh. Love the way they appear to be enjoying each other's company.

[Kevin Krueger]

Cool comparison between the two shapes & sizes. Nice one!

[Maggiemae]

Your subject made me smile and the photograph impressed me!

[Bill Fenske]

We need more snow, to cover up the grittiness.

[Greta]

Wow! Strong black and white. Nice.

[Brigette]

Always look forward to your postings!! Such interesting perspectives.

[Angie]

Really cool shot

[Osia Strasner]

Truly odd couple! Love your perspective....really sums up the nastiness in the city after that clean snow melts away...

[Shanne]

really gritty feel to this

[Graham Thresher]

A great find and capture.

[Tremerryn]

Brrr! A great shot and perspective.

[Steve]

Works so well in B/W

[Heidi]

Great b&w

[☠northy]

love the grittiness and texture of this... nicely spotted and makes for an interesting comp... a perfect "eye of the beholder" sorta thing :)

[Harry J Benson]

good texture and processing

[Katie]

Yep! Should have seen what the back of our car looked like after 6 hours driving through salty highways ... there was a multi-mm thick layer of the stuff.

[Timothy]

cool shot

[Ross Walker]

This is good seeing to find a subject that has enough grime to show up well in B&W. Warm weather folks are always surprised to see how dirty the snow is along the roadsides.

[Daniel]

This would have been great for eotb. Great tones, textures.

[Chris Stapleton]

Nice

[Taffy]

@rvwalker Yep -- some warm weather folks assume snow is just lovely fluffy white stuff. I do like snow outside urban settings -- here, we have such a short window when it's beautiful. Then it's slush or grimy ice.
