Getting microwaved from the looks of things...the same shot without the vehicles could be a big seller there...

Stopping at the cafe to get a cup of coffee and some Hotdish. Looks like pretty flat typical small town middle America. Great sky color. The building looks a little underexposed.

Love the caption on your card! LOL Nice shot of ordinary life in what looks like a typical little town. The building is a little dark and the whole shot seems to suffer from a soft focus, but I like your choice of composition. :)

Funny. I have a friend from Fargo and he found it hilarious. Good choice of text placement and font style.

Yup, that looks like a small town kind of postcard! That cellphone tower in the background must be the ND state tree, right? :-)

Nice shot but i think you should have cropped out the mast which spoils it

That really is the kind of writing and text I would expect to find on a postcard, good idea! The perspective of your photo is very good although I would have tried to get up higher somehow, maybe stand on the car roof or something, to get more above that bush in the foreground.

I always despise when trash cans are in my pictures.... was a different angle possible? Nice overall.

Hopefully staying away from the woodchipper!! The shadows are a bit harsh in the photo - a different time of day may have helped.

Good postcard! Almost makes you want to visit Fargo ...

I guess the text is too bold and interfering with the pillar in the image.Perhaps a little more of the foreground could have been avoided. A little more breathing space on the top also would have helped.6

I like hte use of a slogan, very fitting to a postcard. The picture looks great. overall well done. Exactly what I'd expect in a postcard from Fargo, North Dakota.
