Description
A walk through my neighborhood and city streets yielded a number of interesting designs which mainly caught my eye because of the color. The red and yellow in the upper left photo was spray-painted on the pavement in a construction area to indicate presence of underground utility lines. In the bottom left and the righthand pictures, small leaves that have blown off a nearby tree and gathered against the curb remind us that autumn is on its way. The yellow and black paint in the lower left corner signals the edge of a sidewalk and a step down, reminding pedestrians and drivers alike to take care. The metal plate in the lower right is highly textured, placed at the edge of a sidewalk so that the visually impaired can feel it underfoot and are alerted to listen and wait for turning or passing vehicles.
