I loved this challenge. I've been striving to find "the" depth of field picture that just speaks to me. Luckily I had lots of opportunity this past weekend to find the pictures I wanted to.

A plastic chain in the parking lot at T's office. Supposed to keep people from parking on the dirt instead of in the parking spots. This was the section that was still standing. An adjacent section was broken on the ground, probably caused by someone backing up into it. Nothing like a worn label in an elevator. Poor little fraying, peeling label. Check out the other yellow captured and shared at Beth's.
