 OOps...I see a bad healing brush, do you? Need to fix.

If I could have caught a black crow sitting on one of those mailboxes, I would have been a happy camper!

I really appreciate the color palette in this - not those hyper colors you see for landscapes in so many challenges lately. The coloring helps the man-made and the natural seem of a piece.

This is so simple and yet awesome. Excellent conversion to b&W with just enough color to make it interesting. Well done.

You bet!
I heard that the usps is going to stop rural deliveries -- the muted colors work.

This is a great shot. I love the B&W processing which compliments the subject and composition superbly. Well done.

This is really a great picture. I love the slight hint of color, the perspective, the sky...

You must live close to me because I can drive there in 5-10 minutes...

"OOps...I see a bad healing brush, do you?"

I hope this isn't a trick question. ;) I don't think you need to worry about anything here since this is basically a 'no-rules' side challenge.

Cool image. I love the B&W treatment.

Great shot and beautifully processed. Love the sky, the barely there colour, and those letter boxes are a wonderful focal point.

WOW!! Ditto to what everyone else said. This is brilliant - POV, treatment, dramatic sky. Proves that a little photographic knowledge can turn something ordinary into something extraordinary. Great job.

Nice mood shot, kind of evokes a forlorn feeling. B/W works very well for this. Good PP.

Very dramatic, I find the difference between the stark B&W of the sky and the "green" B&W of the land to be an intresting effect.

Beautiful. Love it that the BW has a hint of green (or at least to me - I should have more coffee maybe LOL). The focus and composition are spot on. I love it. Welcome. Nice to have you as a buddy in another side challenge. :~)

You make an ordinary subject look extraordinary. I love how you post processed it in black and white. Really nice Deborah!

Not sure I can see the healing brush problem. I do love the angle you have chosen to shoot this one from. Really effective. The desaturation really works too.

Lovely muted tones! Great sky! Makes me wonder where the houses that go with the boxes are. LOL!
