Judging from the sign, Waldo grain must have been in business for about 63 years! Great image Grant!

I love the out of focus background behind the wire fence and how nature winds its way around the fence

Your B&W work are always in full state of growth with an impeccable style!

Love it. The fence and vines make a fine b/w subject, and the light and shadow play nicely throughout. Also it's fun to let the sign be ambiguous about whether Waldo Grain is a company or a person's name.

A terrific disarray of lines and vines and fading words -

Hate to be so obvious (well, not really), but where's Waldo?

What you can find behind the fences and in the brush......awesome find of something that once was.

Read your title first and then saw the image, that's amazing. Great find, a classic capture. Like the way you captured the light and shadows here, great job!

wow that's really nice. i love that it's getting hard to tell what's fence and what's vine.

Twelvebit beat me to the punchline. I only found 12 waldos! Really like the light.
