2025 Refreshing night walk

I noticed yesterday we have got another nice photo challenge at #pob community, the week topic given is 'Leading lines'. (Join - its fun!) I selected some stuff from my Underground shoots made with wide angle (some of the captures were done with a fish-eye lens as well).

#POBPhotocontest run by @friendlymoose, refreshed a bit its conditions (moved to another community and paused POB token rewarding). Thus the new week has a hinting prompt - #fresh!

I wanted to take part in this (obviously, if you are reading this...)
The prompt is marvelous in terms it leaves a lot of room for your fantasy, creativity, one can develop different approaches of the subject; this is what I value a lot in such challenges.

So. My 1st thought was to shoot some tender-green sprouts or blooming spring flowers (you may check my recent post, actually it is a lot about this).

But something happened yesterday that made me change my mind. I am a person prone to instant impulses, sensitively reacting to random plot twists and fluctuations of the ether, looking out non-stop for signals sent directly to me by the universe... (now, try to guess my Horoscope sign?.. smile goes here).

Anyway, during my yesterday night walk to the city festival, I stumbled upon this. (I did not look around for any freshness, cause I already considered to post the spring plants sprouts...) It captured my eyes and I understood it clearly: this is it. Exactly! My yet unwritten blog for given topic. Coinsidence? Yes, maybe. A bit.

The bad thing was, that by the moment my camera was full. The battery was still operatable, but the 8Gb flash card said me 'cya' - and I found that I wasnt borrowing a spare one. Silly me! So, I had to unholster my veteran iphone 4 (yes! I still use it!) and take smartphone pics... which I share 'as is', without any post-processing. No photoshop magic today... If I could photograph this street-food display with my camera, to save capture in .raw file format, and process the photos - result could certainly look more luxurious. But I value spontaneity much more highly, the fact that the universe - in response to my request - sent me this plot, and will not ignore it.


Few more pics from the walk, as an extra.

By the way - breeze from Neva river was pretty fresh too!

Here let me round up my blog. Need to sort out all the fresh pics, and surely I will share them soon. Thanks for your visit, see you next time.

Hey cool I will have to check out that contest with the refreshed community and rules.

Absolutely love your pics too. The colour in night shots can be challenging but each of yours are alive despite the numerous angles and styles.

Solid!
