These are the Colors of Mexico

Attracted by the beautiful paint colors, I took several shots of Mi Ranchito Market on Sonoma Boulevard while I was out walking this evening. I was wondering why the market chose those bright colors, and while I did not find any reference to the store itself, I found an article about the history of the Mexican Flag. I am believing that was the inspiration. Those colors represent hope (green), unity (white) and the blood of the national heroes (red).

This was walk number 74 of 100 for 100 x: The 2018 Edition.

 

And for We’re Here! because today’s challenge is corners.
