I'm sure you're right, Bob. I think I had just become so frustrated that I overlooked it.

And the moral of the story is: Beware the quotation marks.

I quite like this shot, Benjamin. And I think with your last edit you're good to go (well, after nixing that little speck).

I gotta agree with Kevin. It's not a felonious violation of the Rule of Thirds. In fact, it's not even a misdemeanor. So you've got that going for you, Carl. Which is nice.

Good remarks? That's a pretty big "if".

But forget the remarks for a minute. Often, even the required data fields--such as "railroad location"--are downright incorrect or listed as "unknown"....

CW,

I’m sure you’re right about the origins of graffiti. In fact, I can attest to its firm establishment on the NYC subway on the few occasions I had to ride it in the 1980s. (But then,...

I would concur with your forensic analysis of the situation. Getting the two to "shake hands" is a good way to put it.
