I was going for the planting of a seed (idea) in one's mind...so I'm not sure how this was considered a stretch by most, considering the description asked you to "fertilize your imagination".
I'm also really not understanding why I didn't get more people questioning the signs. When I saw them, I was a aghast for a moment, though I was really the only one who seemed to notice. Perhaps in today's society, the thought of a pandemic just isn't that far fetched. Or maybe we're just too busy cooing over dandelions to care :) The corner was being used in the filming of the new movie: "I am Legend"...though when you first walked out of the subway you wouldn't have known. The woman with the red jacket directing you to read the sign was a favorable coincidence.
I'm glad to see a few took something away from it.
Yeah posthumous, I especially liked the "seed -> germ -> flu" tie-in...oh well ;)

an excellent image, it does help all of us to realize that when we move out of the box, many will not follow so the job is that much harder to get the idea across.
Interesting idea, something similar. Well composed!
Well, I wanted to write "something unusual" of course :) bad mistake...
Your image is great. Unfortunately people wanted to see some "real" seed in this challenge. A bit close-minded if you ask me. Your shot should have ranked MUCH higher!
