Not sure if a parking lot qualifies for this thread, but it's part of our area's landscape, and it's spring!...

Everything that one relates with spring (and landscape/nature) is right here.

In any case, it's a pretty rainbow.

Hard call, but I think I like the first one the best. That RF 28 is a cool little lens and very sharp.
