Hi Larry,
Can you tell us about this photo? It is very evocative... #721733

I really like the selective coloring. With the crosses and the flag in the corner, I think this is a great perspective especially since the land falls away from your subjects. #4690823

Thanks Sue and Phil!!

Unfortunately, there's not a great, moving, story to go with this image. Much better to think of your own!! I was driving across Ohio on a business trip, and saw this scene... I stopped along the raod and took the photo. Simple as that. It's actually a landfill, which isn't really the story I wanted to tout. #4692538

Larry, this is a wonderful image! I love your perspective and how you captured the flags to the right in the image. Also, your selective coloring and exposure is GREAT! #4785069
