I like it too.  I don't have a reason why either.  That's probably a good thing - it's when I don't like something that I come up with a whole list of reasons.  ;)

That's a wonderful quote, Toke! I think that's why I often just post a "+1" after somebody else's comment.

Oh, by the way, Groucho: I like it too, but I don't know why...

I like it too, and I never know why -- why I like a picture when I look at it, or why I like a picture when I trip the shutter. In spite of what art teachers will tell you, neither making a good picture nor appreciating a good picture is a thought process.

Groucho, it reminds me of this one I shot in St. Augustine, Florida as I was crossing the street toward Castillo de San Marcos. The kids were getting off a bus and heading for the fort. By the way, you do good work. Keep it up.
