I'll pass on the meeting the challenge and comment on this photo as it is..

I love the composition and the "spooky" effect..
Could use a little tilt to strighten the horizon.. :)

Overall I love the B/W effect.. Cheers

Don, this is a great image with a great title. There is no escaping for the eye as it moves along the path towards the raised board (sorry, I don't know what the subject matter is in the real world, but it doesn't matter) and hits it with nowhere else to go, the blackness of the background being the final touch. I didn't get to vote on this, unfortunately (only voted on about half the images in this challenge).

I like your leading lines that take you up to the door, and the title really explains the meaning.

Interesting image with the leading lines of the fencing taking you to a blank wall. This setting could come in handy for some "setup" shots in the future if it's available to you.
