 This photo is inspired by a good friend of mine, who didn't get her visa in time, so she couldn't visit me this year. :-( I was very angry at the administration, and I think this is a boundary for friends that should be cancelled as soon as possible!

Thank you for your kind and helpful comments a much! :-) I see some Hungarian fellows realized the "Vizum" text immediately. :-)

Anyway I would like to hear some opinions from those who didn't like the photo. I thought I was clear with the message: it was a boundary that made me very angry in the recent time. If it weren't there, Nasti - and Gary - could have visited me and we could have had a great New Year's Eve party. I have been being on the edge because of the Hungarian Administration for a month. Okay, I knew this wasn't a wow photo, but I thought I could reach at least the 5.0 limit with it.

Seeing the Hungarian text, let me write the comment in Hungarian:

Tetszik az ötlet, végre egy kép itten aminek mondanivalója is van :)
A mélységélesség remek. Szép éles a kép :)
Tulajdonképpen nincs semmi bajom a képpel......de szivesen megnézném ezt a képet más perspektívából is.
Szép munka :)

Creative play on boarders. Far right edge seems out of focus but otherwise well done
