I love the (literal) depth of this image. The signs at different distances and different angles created a very complicated layering effect. It's a rich and energetic composition with great light, countered by the cane.
The neighborhood had seen better days. It used to be a much sought after address, but now with graffiti everywhere and the council too underfunded to keep the streets maintained, maybe it was time to have another look at that retirement village his son keeps on about.
This seems so poetic to me filled as it is with references that reveal themselves with prolonged viewing. Nothing better than a shot that grows with time. 8
The title is a clever combination of the signs but takes a tad of ambiguity out of it al for me. The snap-shot fell combined with an exquisite composition works well here. Bumping to 7.
