It may be work, it may be play, it may be near, it may be away. So here is the challenge - to shoot and post one photograph a day on this site. These photographs are a kind of diary of things I find interesting. I am also thinking that there will be days when I am unable to shoot, so on those infrequent occasions, I will post a photograph done on another day, but one that still feels important to me. - Ken Spencer

It's About the Colors
I was not trying to be ironic or incongruous with this photograph. At a stop sign, I saw this out the windshield, and thought it was a bit incongruous at first. Funny thing with me is, and my daughters are always laughing at me about this, when I find a new word that I like, like incongruous, I use it over and over again, sort of like I am doing here... Anyhow, I didn't think that the sign really related to the cemetery behind it, but I ended up liking the colors - the yellow sign against the clear blue sky. So I took it for a simpler reason than you might expect. No hidden meaning here!
Regardless of your intent, I had to laugh out loud when saw the sign, "no dumping" with the cemetery behind. I could picture a body being hurled over the fence like the scene of the doggie do do being hurled onto the neighbor's lawn on Saturday Night Live.
ReplyDeletehaa haa, that IS funny. Like, you can't just dump the bodies there, you have to go through the front gate and make it official.
