Rural Route
Uploaded: November 11, 2007
Everyday on my way to work I pass this mailbox...Several times I have thought,,,I need to stop and take a picture of that...But since I am on my way to work...Well you get the picture...: )
Yesterday (Saturday) I got up early and went on an Autumn Safari...And this was the first place I stopped...
As I pass by it in the mornings I always think "If I ever get a picture of that I am going to title it "Rural Route"...As I have said before lots of times as I am taking a picture or when I look at it in the computer I think of the title...: )
Hand held early AM Nov. 10th Southern Illinois country road. 18-70mm lens. Auto setting...I added a touch of contrast to make the rust on the box darker...: )

Thank you ALL for commenting on "Rural Route"I am sorry I have been so busy and when I get to running out of time guess what is put on the back burner...: (
Of course photo galleries and e-mail replies...: (
But I have carved out a little bit of time tonight and will hopefully get caught up...: )
Have a Happy Thanksgiving...Debbie : ) #5103661

Hope no one saw you pull up & thought you were in trouble. That's what always happened to me, I'm banned from pulling up on the side of the road now. Aren't these old letter boxes great. Good work=^..^= #5105120Debbie Fleri November 25, 2007
Okay this has hapened twice now...: (I sure thought I had replied to the thread and it is not here...????
Anyway Thanks Chris...Yes I do have friends who have said they saw me on the side of the road or Hwy and knew I was okay because they saw my camera...And they ususally ask..."What were you taking a picture of???"
Hahhahaha...I have told them they don't have to stop unless I am waving them down...hahaha...: )
Have a good day...TTfn...Debbie : ) #5122872
