He he! I like this: nice composition, colors, and funny... and it makes you think!

This one definitely IS. 25 for that.

(I couldn't help noting that white "motive" at the top of the image... It... hmmm... resembles something... :)))

Hehe, thank you everyone. I didn't expect quite a response. If anyone is interested, this came from on of my side projects...

I love this shot. I need a stack of stickers like that.

King said 523 days ago:

Now I know what Art is. What a relief. If this is Art, then it should get high ratings. All right, then.

This made me smile. Thanks.

King said 523 days ago:

SeekingFocus...how like you.

...and thanks for the link. In many cases, the sticker defaces the art, which is ironic. In some cases, the sticker's defacement enhances the "art," which is doubly ironic.

I have a photo of a civil war monument with an engraving of a beautiful quote by President Lincoln, over which the authorities sloppily taped a photocopied sign, "Do not climb on monument."

@Ana,

I can make that happen. Get in touch with me.

@King,

Thanks, and yes the irony is rather part of the idea. It's also about the ready-made and broadening the general idea of 'art' in the first place. But I think you get the idea.

Also, your example of the war monument fits perfectly. =)

@All,

Thank you for the wonderfully high ratings. I'm a bit surprised (once again) at how this works. Glad you enjoyed this one.
