This is a great photo that should of ranked higher. I love how the two women provide the only source of collor (therefore life)in this scene. There is a sense of loss because very soon they will exit the frame and those colors and the energy will leave as well. The composition, desaturation, but more importantly the strength that lies in the subtleties of this image is wonderful.
This is simply too good for DPC. I like the near B&W of the scene and the quiet colors of the women. Perfectly titled in a number of ways. The mailboxes seem of the women's era, yet the graffiti speaks of a disrespect that would not have been tolerated in their youth.
What humor! :) Nice catching the two old ladies there. Though the shot could use some contrast/brightness adjustments. Looks a bit too dark for this kind of shot.
:) love the title and the idea, i only wish the boxes were a bit lighter, to make them stand out a bit more, because the background has the same color. 7
