Chalk Walk in Northeast

Saturday and Sunday saw the Chalk Walk come back to the Concourse in Historic Northeast for another year. The fountain water is turned off and the concrete base and walkways become canvas for chalk artists from all over. I took these pix on Sunday so some of the Saturday drawings had suffered a little from what rain we received that day. Its a great time for everyone... and kids love it too. Giant kites were on hand and the 30 mile-per-hour gusts (and up) made for great wee-people fun. I seldom post people pix but that's actually the majority of my work. There was also live entertainment including jugglers who used mini-volunteers some of whom I think had second thoughts about the whole thing.

Corinthian Spring



Another post of pix up by the "Museum." In this case I'm showing two different color spaces... Corinthian Hall is shown in the Adobe RGB color space which is closer to natural and has more gradations of color. The red bud which is due west of the building is shown in the sRGB... a microsoft creation for web and other uses. The latter is certainly more colorful and saturated... but too much for my taste.
