 A gray house which doesn't want any visitors. My tenant took this sign off one of the trees on our private road and put it next to his door. I think it makes an accurate statement about some of us cranky Yankees who just want to be left alone.

In my humble personal opinion, even if you were able to obtain the sense of a B&W background, in a color picture, your suject is unatractive and uselessly agresive. The extreme white from the sign, contrasted with the intense red of the letters makes it look unfocused.

Great Idea!

Nice red. Clever desaturation of fence colors. 5 sjgleah

DUH!!???!!! You got some 'splainin' to do !
 09/25/2002 12:15:00 PM
would've liked to have seen more of the scene around the sign.

Clever! And well done.

So does this mean that your corner of the world is off limits to photographers?! I'm sending in the paparazzi!

Witty interpretation. 6, just-married

Oooh, I hate those signs!

Very bright sign. Low interest shot and while this might be construed as your corner of the world, it's hard to see much of it. 5 Swash
Extra: was there some significance to the extra holes? Looks like bullet holes.
I like what you did with the color, but not enough to up the score.

<lol> Okay, good luck. Score 6 Justine

surely you might've found something more intriguing to do witht he sign than to take a close-up of it.
 09/23/2002 08:49:00 AM
Well, this certainly says it all, and it fits the challenge criteria, too.

So you don't work for the local Chamber of Commerce, eh? :)
