Thanks for your comments.

Brian. . .I appreciate your thoughts on this. I think your saying that you don't find the silhouette of the ladder to be a good subject to go along with the moon.

Seb . . .Thanks for the analysis. The two ladders and the sloping roof top, from my vantage point ( back porch) was what attracted me . . .and then I knew where I wanted to place the moon. Actually not scanning artifacts, but lots of grain. 400 speed film but more grainy than normally. The grain was then reduced, and thats what makes it look not quite like grain/noise. I redid this shot, taking a little of all the response from the thread and find I like it better with lots of noise, B&W, and the wires cloned out. I will post the edited version soon. Thanks for your Salute

Liban . . .I'm happy you like this shot as I posted it. I also like the line you mention offsetting the other hues, but the B&W version has the same effect but with tone rather than color. I would like to know what you feel abut the edited version soon to be up.

Roger . . .The wires also had me unsettled. I think you may like the next version with the wires out and the grain more natural. thanks for the time to comment

Chrislowshow . . . I agree about the wires.thanks for the comments

CL Kunst . . . Thanks for the welcome back. You know, I never thought about that as being a public servant. But it's attached to a private house, so I don't think I would include it in the other series, but fire escapes on a public housing building . .hmmm

Greg . . .Thanks for your thought on this. short and sweet, but very meanigful to me.
