Respectfully taking a cue from eeneryma, in looking for curious juxtapositions. I took the shot in Wyoming.

Keith,

I'd play with the crop some off the bat - feels overly centered and static.

Detail is look a bit soft and I might be seeing some hints of nose. Did you crop heavy on this one?

It's really funny how some folks bleed a certain state over others.

Cheers,

Jeff

Another good catch.

I miss certain parts of states I have lived in, but no state trumps everything.

I miss the good restaurants in California, the good bird photo ops in Washington/Idaho, but love the landscapes of Utah. Utah is also the best state for low taxes.

Jeff,
You're right -- after discarding the original image I found this small version, blew it up a little in PS, and sharpened it. It's certainly not wall decor, really just a snapshot of someone making an interesting statement.

Ben,
Like you I have lived in several states, incl California Texas Colorado Maryland and Hew Hampshire. I miss the old days in California from 50 years ago but wouldn't go back there now. Similarly for Colorado. There are states I haven't lived in that I'd like to try but I'm running out of time! In any case I don't think I'd feel strongly enough about a place to what this person did. Thanks for the comment.

The back story takes it to another level. Too bad you couldn't have something like a sign for the state line @ Wyoming in the shot too. Without the backstory, the irony isn't quite as strong on its own.

With the primary coming, all eyes are on Iowa. 😀

Vanity lIcense plates can say a lot about their owners. Good catch!
