I like to visit this border city of over 500,000 people early in the morning for the best light and most intriguing possibilities.

Nice color!

Thank you, Aleksandr. That morning light was perfect for the photo. I've been there at least twenty mornings, but the sky haze and clouds weren't "just so." A little "hard" editing helps, too.

Great composition, color & texture. For purety of esthetics it might (?) be useful to eliminate rubbish near the meter.

Ah, Vsevolod, that trash adds life to the empty street. Humans live here. Humans drop trash. I am an anthropologist photographer. Not a REAL anthropologist, but a photographer who seeks bits of human activity in a finished photo. And, no, I didn't see the trash when I snapped the photo. You are correct with regard to "purity" of the photo. I'll leave that to purists. Thanks for the comments.
