Nice photo's. I found it very difficult this time to make a selection.

I'll say.  First time I've wanted to vote for literally every one.

The many great photos make us uncertain which to choose.  Thanks to all of you who have contributed these real world photos.

Number thirteen is interesting in that a feature of the highway makes an unplanned excursion into some farmers pasture a distinct possibility.  Especially true  of hot dog drivers and slightly inebriated ones.

It would be a fun game to try and guess who took the various photos.

So many great photos. I really love 23 though. Great work.

Homer:"No! Faith is what you have in things that don't exist. Your awesomeness is real."

"I was thinking that perhaps this thing called God does not exist. Because He cannot save any one of us. No matter how we pray, He doesn't mend our wounds.

Yayyyy! Sweetdeath is back.  I have not seen a post from her in a looong time.   

SD don't make yourself so scarce here in happy land.

Indeed it would. Difficult for most though.

Best not to go there, lest one influences the votes.
