Three




We moved our daughter back into her college dorm today. This was stenciled on the wall of the stairway up to her room.

  1. Great presence of mind to catch this in all the chaos of a move-in. Impressive! :-)

  3. @Val--Fortunately, it was after we'd left her and we were on our way out. If she'd been with us, she would have been TOTALLY embarrassed and sworn that I had ruined her for life by being so weird.

  4. Ah, college! Stenciled instructions on painted concrete walls. I agree with Giseled and that their is a certain vibrancy to 3. I wonder if it was intentional?

  5. I bet it is hard taking her back, but hey, you got a theme filled doing it (on the up side)1 :) Love the simplicity and how that #3 stands out!

  6. You have to get your inspiration where you find it, my family are totally over being embarassed by my photography pursuits.

  7. it's good to know: there is always an exit, and if one exit is in the south, then I hope there will be another in the nord ;-)

  10. Great clean image, the 3 does seem to glow a bit. It won't be that much longer that you embarrass her...

  11. Well done "3"... it really jumps out at us and it has the institutionalized feel to it that is easily recognized.

  15. I like taking photos of numbers too. Not sure why they have an appeal. This one is very nice! Was your daughter eager or sad to go back?
