@Chipso: Puebla has its good point, and some great old architecture. Not my favourite Mexican city, but certainly worth exploring.

Stu from Kyoto, Japan

Really get a feel for what Puebla must be like from this one. If only they could afFord a coat of paint.....;-)

So sorry about that one, Damon.

Duncan Galbraith from kyoto, Japan

thats a beauty of a shot, great textural image. Love the little things of interest that cities throw at us.

@Duncan Galbraith: Indeed, I wondered what the history of the sign was... Ford used to have a policy of making lots of small factories all over the place to give workers a living salary to be able to afford cars. I wondered if this was one, once upon a time.

William from Sacramento, United States

I agree, great textures and a cool building.

A new kind of cars? Nice shot!

15 Mar 2007 5:05pm

@Martine Lapointe: Old kind, I think! Thanks, Martine!

Fred from Easton PA, United States

The sign seems just alittle out of place hanging there doesn't it ?
Great capture !

15 Mar 2007 5:26pm

@Fred: True, but it all looks so ancient. The building and the sign have grown old together. Thanks, Fred!

Angry Buddha from United States

Great catch! I would have shot this too.

15 Mar 2007 8:03pm

@Angry Buddha: Thanks, Sean! Take a stroll in Puebla sometime. There are plenty more sights to shoot.

I like this old painting on the wall.. Childhood memory...

15 Mar 2007 10:51pm

@Still: Some places, time doesn't seem to pass... Thanks, Still!

Daroru from Osaka, Japan

Very nice quality to your shot. Textures and colour really grab you.

Daniel from United States

Pass me a Ford!

16 Mar 2007 1:23am

@Daniel: Thanks, Daniel!

Sidonie from Sydney, Australia

It's a completely incongrous collation of elements! Wondrous - you've got an eye for the off-beat!

16 Mar 2007 1:18pm

@Sidonie: One tries to find things worth looking at. Thanks, Sidonie!

Sylvia from Milano, Italy

Yes yes! Love the contrasting elements, and the wall looks like an old rusty Ford.

17 Mar 2007 6:42am

@Sylvia: Thanks, Sylvia!

Bill from New Orleans, United States

Great shot! I like this one a lot. The Ford sign seems so out of place against that wall.

18 Mar 2007 2:43am

@Bill: Out of place and out of time. Thanks, Bill!
