A shot of Half Way Tree the centre of the City of Kingston and Andrew. This is a very busy area of the city during the midday during the week and also on weekends when people come out to shop. I took this shot in my car on my way to work one morning.

Wonderful street capture, one keeps watching! I like the L-shaped composition and the PR for Nissan (I used to drive a Nissan Sunny until it was totally worn out:)

@Rebecca: Thanks for sharing your life, world and beautiful photographs with us! All the best!
These on-impulse shots can tell so much more about a city than anything planned and scripted. Nice one, Stunner.

Nice shot. Like the angle and the composition. Seems like Nissan is everywhere.

Its a type of scene that is known by all commuters, that back end of the Nissan... Good shot Stunner, I like the spontaneity of the capture, these are the real views of the city.

i saw this photo and thought, "cool composition and perspective." then i saw the title and thought, "was I supposed to have seen a tree in this photo?" ;)

@danthro: No, lol. It is called Half Way Tree because a long time ago there was a huge cotton tree there, near to the clock. And as this point was a central area or a half way point for travelers, where they rested. So that's how it got its name.
fantastic capture of this street scene.
