Beautiful image flush, the texture of the road is superb. But be careful it's dangerous to stay in the middle of the road :)) Good day.

Good point of view and depth, and very saturated colors. A beautiful street with trees.

I have also liked the vanishing-point perspective, as far back as high school art class in the early 60s, JJ. :) This one works for me.

Your Flickr shot is good too, but I love the colors in this one, with its very different POV. I can see you were fairly safe squatting in the middle of this one-way street, ready to take on anyone who ventured into your frame! ;D

One thing I love about seeing an urban shot is the tree lined avenues. This one is particularly lovely with the flower beds and old street lamps.
