Thanks tv, I used an ExpoDisc for the custom white balance. This was taken late afternoon, with the sun back toward the chimney.

Tom, this is an excellent exposure and interesting composition. I find the colors of this kind of sign to be especially ugly in the context of the surrounding colors, and the photo demonstrates that reality well. -tv
