ABC Wednesday 'M' is for 'mishmash"

A bright mishmash of architecture for you, snapped from my car at a red light while stuck in traffic.

See more M's at ABC WEDNESDAY.

That's a wonderful "snapshot." I'm not sure you could have done better if you planned it out and used a tripod. It's a terrific mix of architecture and the colors are, indeed, stunning. Super job!

So much great photography is serendipity!

Well, they certainly are colorful. Should be easy to find after too much partying.

I love the bright colors used for the apartments!

I love that you snap pics while in the car. Mike always teases me about doing that.
This is certainly a diverse mishmash of buildings.

Marvy mishmash at that! Wonderful capture...how many layers is that? I like the brightly painted building.

Those colours just zing. Love that people paint their houses such bright happy colours.

Such bright, cheerful colors!

I like neighborhoods that make it easy to find your own house. It's much better than the cookie cutter sub divisions that are being built now of days. I also like your photo. Good work!

Love it! Sure adds a little spice to life doesn't it?

PS You could link this to my Midweek Blues meme - it's got the right color going on!

Isn't it amazing how sometimes the best pictures are those we least suspected to be good? I'm sure that when you were sitting at that light, snapping that picture, you weren't thinking seriously about composition, lighting, etc. Yet, the picture is, in its own way, very nice. The colors, the contrasts, both in lighting and perceptive distance to the observer, etc make this a really good shot. Thanks for sharing.

I'm so glad someone else drives around with a camera at their fingertips! Love the photo. The juxtaposition of shapes and colors is wonderful.

the character of a Beograd neighborhood captured beautifully!
here's to traffic jams, Bibi!

Love the way you (and Lily, our other Brooklyn Bridge blogpal) snap pix from your car! This is a great catch.
