Jeff and Eric, what a treat to see your comments. Eric, you win the prize. When I submitted this to Dick, I asked "I wonder how many folks will remember which movie theme song had the lyrics "Heavy Metal Thunder" . You've gone one better by remembering the song writer. Yep, this is from the theme song of that classic movie "Easy Rider". Jeff, when I first took this image I too wish I could clone out the signs. They do steal a bit of the show. I guess I don't mind it now. Thanks again for your kind comments.

Hi Leo -

Great to have you back around the forum!

Like you, I had several (and changing) lists and in the end, I simply went with the most recent one!

This is perfectly exposed and composed. I liked the title, too - is it a "Steppenwolf" reference???

El-See, great color in this photo. I like the "no editing" part of the Challenges, but I wish the signs could be edited out, just a personal preference. BTW, thanks for all your past contributions to OTF; I've learned a lot from them! Cheers.
