The owner of the land is a millionaire/philanthropist and this is the newest place it has been moved to. The place is all graffitized from the gate/rubbishbin to the cars which are allowed to be painted on more layers each time someone passes by and get inside. I suppose the only time this was not repainted on is during the time the corn field hides this view/scenery. I am sorry I can't express myself well. But for some people who knows where this place is, they will perhaps trample on the corn field nevertheless.
    It is definitely different! Maybe the owner has a unique sense of humor and laughed as he arranged his 'art pieces'. And for me, I don't mind graffiti so long as it is "clean" and respectful. I do like the way you saw the picture and captured it to keep and to share! Take care and get back out when you can!

The place looks more like a cadillac graveyard to me.
    Thank you Binnur and Greg for viewing. You are both very kind to me. When my fingers heals some more I will be able to do some more editing. I can only hope. The wonders of technological advancement caught up with me and I have to have my R finger and L thumb fitted with screws so it will avoid having osteoporosis . I am still having a hard time typing so editing will have to wait. Thanks again.

    Thank you so much, Sandy...the owner is a patron of the arts...

    Nice to see you posting again Izzie. I like the composition and the subject is weird. They look like a series of failed attempts at the Word's longest jump. However, it just needs a gentle massage with the PS highlights and Shadows tool. There is a lot more detail available in the figures. They're a bit blocked out at the moment.
