Interesting perspective to show the lane with lane running off to left. Shadows add to impact. Nice dof and focus. Very different to the area I grew up in but have seen similar.

Talk about going down memory lane! This picture takes me back to running through the streets, throwing a ball around and playing street hockey as a kid. Very easy picture to look at and smile. Nice work!

Ah, how I remember the white picket fences of my youth, waiting to have my own surround my home. This is such a lovely scene and I am sure it brought back lots of memories for a lot of folks here on FAR. Great photo.

    Thank you. This one of those little alleyways that are all over town

Very cool photo that gives it's viewers a taste of nostalgia.
The focus on the street and the white picket fences add a nice childhood feel to it. The filters you've added have given a dream-like effect, appropriate for the description and title.
Great job!:)

Well, mine in England is nothing like yours, where? Your image is well composed, its sharp and has good exposure. Looks like a grand country scene!

    Thank you. This is a small town in NE Pennsylvania, USA. Our population is about 4000. The town is where every child knows every side street and probably knows other children from all over town because there are only a few places to hang out. Only 1 public school and several Churches of various Denominations.

    Many thanks for clearing this up! I hail from a town in NW England which then had a population of 55,000 and is probably larger still now!
