Thanks Ken. I’m embarrassed to admit that I didn’t have anything in mind other than aesthetic considerations when I put these images together. One was an old storefront entrance, the other a boarded-up door to a building being renovated.
When I read your comment, I took another look at the image and thought, “Oh, it’s a statement about obstacles to the whole love and peace ethos of the sixties and seventies.”
Is this, or something like it, what you were thinking of when you said it would make a great poster?
As an old guy from the peace and love era, yes, I like that aspect of this photo. But it also has a colorful aesthetic about it that makes it easy to keep looking at it. If you are rating your own images, give this one 5 stars.
When we moved into the house we are in now, some 13 years ago, I put in a brick sidewalk because there was none. I had some leftover paving stones and I make a 3-foot piece sign by the side of the house. It’s a symbol of my past that I never forgot and still believe in.
This would make a great poster, Alan. Nice work!

Much appreciated Ken. That peace symbol is a relic of the distant past we both grew up in, isn’t it? I hadn’t seen it in a long, long, very long time.
