Autumn public service vehicles


Looking hard for some autumn colours, I finnaly found some down at the Quartier Spectacles... these trees were a neat yellow-orange with olive highlights, the ambulances were a brilliant neon green, and the tail lights on the cop cars were red. The brilliant trees were also reflecting in the windows of the cop cars. Okay, police cruisers is the formal name, although here they are PJD cruisers. That's one thing the graffiti artists can't tag... cop cars, but I can with my paintings!

The entire street of Bleury had several dozen cop cars and ambulances lined up. In the background, a glass building reflected more buildings and trees that were behind me. After doing the painting, I walked down the sidewalk with my bike and found out the reason for all the attention. Cops were standing around in groups on the sidewalk and having coffee and socializing with each other, meanwhile at the corner with st Catherine, people with a U Haul moving van with speakers attached to the top were unloading signs and Palestinian flags, getting ready for the weekend protest.
