We were on our way to dinner one night when we stopped at a red light for Route 250. Fortunately, I was in the front seat and grabbed my iPhone and snapped this photo before another car pulled up alongside us. I can't explain why I love this photograph, but I think it is all about the extraordinary light. Gray clouds are to the east, in the distance and the sun was very close to setting, making the light a deep yellow in color. It sure doesn't hurt that the building was yellow as well. It is kind of a documentary photograph - a traffic light pole, a road sign, and a "don't walk" light, all with shadows on the wall. Simple, but I think dramatic.
