Geoff,
I'm not sure exactly why, but this photograph amuses the hell out of me.
I'd be tempted to crop up a bit though- to reduce the amount of OOF stuff on the lower left.
Happy birthday.

...it's a fireworks stand AND a mobile home! How ingenious!
Agree with Charlie...I saw this and was amused right away. Cant' quite put my finger on it, but it has a certain charm about it.
I actually like the out of focus stuff on the left though. Gives it a certain "dated" look.

Thanks Charlie and Tim. Obviously this place is no longer in business. I'm sure it couldn't compete with the fireworks mega-marts we have here. I took this photo on 7/2, and wanted to get it posted by the 4th, so I did a quick and dirty PP. I added a vignette and some grain, and overexposed a bit to give it a dated look. I really should go back there and shoot some film in my Holga. Then I wouldn't have to add those things...the camera does that for me
I kinda like the OOF areas...different strokes. I have a few others, maybe I'll work on them.
