Lady in Pink


Pink dress, crutches (one purple and one green) gold shoes, bright lipstick and eye shadow. I've seen this lady around Menton and despite the obvious difficulty she has in walking she doesn't let it get her down. The bright colours she wears suit her obviously sunny personality.

It's Theme Day in the City Daily Photo community and today's theme is BRIGHT COLOURS. Click on the link to see colour from around the world.

  2. She obviously likes bright colors. I have never seen such colors on crutches. Is is good that she is out and about as much as she is.

  3. I admire her very much. That is not easy, to do. To go out on crutches. Good for her. She has her style & sticks to it. Brava.

  5. I knew the minute that I saw the determination you've captured in your photo of this woman that she must get out and about, despite the crutches. I see people here who exhibit such determination and wonder if I would have it--I want to believe that I would.
