 It was the last day of the challenge and I was trying really hard to get a good shot for the "Construction" challenge. I parked in downtown Lufkin, Texas and walked down to where they are replacing the streets. I was trying to get a good angle, and saw this pretty lady on the mural smiling at me. I'm not sure who painted the mural.

A nice composition whose billboard adds interest to the workhorse machinery and sand and gravel.
