So many people have participated in making this image that it evokes a form of democracy. And I note the date on the pic is the first day of Spring, a time for rebirth; hope springs eternal.

How sad is this? We put so much hope in Obama and, like this wall, that hope seems to be eroding. That two years ago Phil named his image "Obama Rising" and today yours is entitled "Eroded Hope" reflects this reality.

Eroded indeed. I made an image with you the same day and I called it "Obama Rising." You have the advantage of hindsight, waiting two years to post your version of this shot. (See my own version athttp://www.pbase.com/image/110781576 )
