It seems like the clouds are resting on the top of the trucks. The fence make the photo much interesting. Cu

I don't know why but this almost made me burst out laughing. Well seen and captured.

@Stovepipe: i can think of reasons, but like a joke, explanations ruin it. so, i'll just say thanks.

Polydactyle from Montréal, Canada

Nice shot. The three "moving?" create a funny movement on this pic. Great!

Observing from West Cheshire, United Kingdom

When I saw this I immediately thought of that old cowboy song.. rollin, rollin, rollin, but then as movin. Does that make sense... maybe be not. Great shot then.

@Observing: yea, that's great. do you remember when the blues brothers did that song in the movie - hilarious.

P.J. from United States

Very nice image. If the fence wasn't there, I don't know if I would dig the image. But I like how the U-Haul is peeking over the top -- besides the one. Interesting stuff.

I've been to Overland Park. My husband has a distant cousin who lives there. I know you must be thrilled:-) Yes, indeed these trucks are being well used. As a matter of fact for reasons I shall not go into we've used them so many times through the years I get a sick feeling just seeing one. Don't get me wrong; I like your image. It's just bad memories to recall all my stuff in boxes in one of these. I'm a nester:-) Greyscale was a great choice.

@sherri: thanks for the comment sherri. i guess these trucks are bound to evoke memories of moving for people - and moves are emotional events, for good or bad. it is good to hear from someone whose been to overland park too.
