sherri from Little Rock, Arkansas, United StatesI see you've taken an out of state trip:-) These little fireworks places are so abundant in Missouri it's pitiful...to me. An excellent image. 15 Jun 2009 5:17am @sherri: all the way to nebraska... don't tell anyone. these places are my 14 y.o. son's favorite destination. paolo from castelnuovo, ItalyThe letters on the billboard looks greater than the building itself ! Great!!! ;-) 15 Jun 2009 9:26am lux from Munich, GermanyThese fotos are so special, are you going to have an exhibition with them? You easily could do so. 15 Jun 2009 12:26pm bluechameleon from Vancouver, CanadaI love this shot Grant. These little jewels that you find along the roadside are so amazing... 15 Jun 2009 1:21pm don from spokane, United StatesI like the owner's sense of humor - Emporium in a fireworks stand is very funny. Nice shot of the place. I like the road included to help us "get" the setting. 15 Jun 2009 3:06pm david from columbus, ohio, United Statesalways impressed by these fireworks "emporiums" "warehouses" and "superstores" but, why are they always tucked away like this? i like this. 15 Jun 2009 5:28pm @david: i'm guessing they don't make popular neighbors... daina from New York, United StatesI’m sure the sign can be seen for miles, but the hut seems lonely with nothing but distant fields and empty roads surrounding it, but you found it so I’m sure others have as well :} I like the framing that includes the distant fields as well as the foreground windswept grass to give context. 15 Jun 2009 5:55pm Paul van der Meer from Valkenswaard, Netherlandsamazing is the space between the camera( you) and the subject, gives a special effect!! 15 Jun 2009 6:16pm observing from North West, United KingdomWonderful shot and excellent quality, I'm just imagining Laurel & Hardy going in there to ask for a job....!!*!* 15 Jun 2009 8:42pm Lambspun from Madison, Maine, United StatesVery special shot....passed many of these in the South. 15 Jun 2009 10:06pm Howard F. from South Pasadena, Calif., United StatesA little early for July 4th, but that's fine. This is amazing- a fireworks vendor in the country side? What are they trying to start a forest fire, haha. 16 Jun 2009 12:24am @Howard F.: they're all over the rural highways around here. this one is off a big highway. the road in the shot is just an access road. i don't know how they stay in business. Bill from Belton, United StatesA tribute to isolation Grant! Superb image in every respect! 16 Jun 2009 1:28am Mindy | f-stopMarin from United StatesI suppose when you're in the middle of nowhere, it's comforting to see a huge Fireworks Emporium sign. Terrific find/capture. Love the lettering, perspective, compo... 16 Jun 2009 3:14am dj.tigersprout from New York City, United Stateslooks like the ABSOLUTE place to get your fireworks!! :) you can even set them off nearby!! ;) 16 Jun 2009 4:44am Jane from United StatesThis wonderful image cracked me up. The composition is excellent and helps exemplify the notion of a rural emporium. 16 Jun 2009 5:53am Reiner from Brensbach, GermanyThis area seems to be deserted and the house seems to be alone in the vastness of the country. Again a great finding, Grant. 16 Jun 2009 6:06am Terry H. from Azle Texas, United StatesI like shots of fireworks stands. I'm going to have an get out and shoot a few of the numerous ones that line the road on the way to my house. 16 Jun 2009 7:58pm michele from Canadalooks like an emporium to me. and more of a fun place to blow $$$ than a casino (just my opinion). something about how you've framed the sign is just lovely. as if you've left room for the fireworks sky. 16 Jun 2009 8:10pm @michele: i do like these places... (and hate casinos) Twelvebit from Victoria, United StatesNebraska? Almost looks like a beach scene. 16 Jun 2009 10:46pm Didier DE ZAN from somewhere, FranceI like this composition and the perspective and as always this BW is just great 18 Jun 2009 8:35pm |
