 This photo was taken in northern Georgia. The house, just out of frame to the left, was as ramshackle as the buildings in the background but had a bright black SUV parked outside.

I tried to keep the ground and buildings level but I wonder what effect the tilt of the pole will have on viewers. Guess I'll find out soon enough.

Good concept, but the roof and other things that are not desaturated are very distracting

The very bright red in the background is a bit distracting.
