 This building has always been of interest to me. It just a small modular section of a motel sitting by the side of the road. Just to it's side is an A-frame building of the sort found at lakeside resorts. It all looks very out of place. More pics to be posted in the outtakes thread.

Post challenge notes:
Well, this one sucked and I knew it because I was not satisfied with it myself. It was an experiment though,a and I think I learned something from its dismal showing.

Here's some outtakes, I think some of these would have scored higher (Though still not great):


This one is the same image, but without the intentional skew:

Reminds me of where we spent our honeymoon 30 years ago! Great title.

Angle really doesn't add anything to this image to me.

I like the PoV, but the colors are a bit oversaturated.

Love the caption, color, shooting angle, not really sure about the tilt,

I see some interest in the image, but not close up enough, just too much foreground taking away from the more interesting stuff. Personal preference perhaps, but I am not really comfortable with the skewed angle of the image.
