I like the overlay of shadow details on the building. Good "cross-fertilization" of ideas. -tv

Very good exposure and color.

As Penny said - this is hysterical, but a great picture for the topic - Love those chickens! :-) CJ

Okay, the beans are spilled :-) Mary Anne was right to be suspicious of the tru indentity of this place. I walked by a couple of times wondering what the heck Wexley was, and finally googled it a month ago to get the scoop. Their website is really pretty funny.

Just an alternative viewpoint of Seattle culture ;-)

okay so silly, curious me... I looked this up and now have to post this link. It's ridiculous... Brent, what kind of town do you live in anyway? (that's a joke)

Well done Brent. What a bonus to find the yellow chickens. -COAmature

Too funny, Brent. The whole place must be a tongue-in-cheek put-on. I can't imagine any real school wanting to present this face to the public. You've created a lot of smiling faces today...so glad you spotted it.

The rubber chicken are hilarious. Great find, perfectly on topic, Brent. And clever use of your polarizer. -Gerald

Thanks Girls :-) Crazy looking place, eh? I have unfortunately been short of time to participate much this challenge, but quickly ran up the street to check this place out hoping for at least a blue window frame to go with the rubber chickens I had noticed previously (hear they teach the girls how to make an awesome rubber chicken soup there). I was pleased to find the whole building was yellow and blue, and my polarizing filter worked great to cut down glass glare in the chicken window. You should see the looks this place gets from passersby!
