Seems a little bit improper in this place but with a strong visual impact, in any case ! Particularly excellent image, Karen. BV.

It's amazing where Coke's marketing seeps into. I swear if the human race died out tomorrow the next lot of visiting aliens will assume that the planet was called Coke and that red was a sacred colour.
This makes for a most excellent striking image. The wood of the barn and the branches in front are completely rustic, then plonked right into that is the incongruous, urban Coke sign.

Great shot of the barn with a Coke sign that may outlive the barn.
That sign might be a collectors item and worth a few bucks.
You did see the red perfectly.

globalgadabout12-Feb-2013 03:27
an un-expected location, yet clearly Coke have carpet-bombed the world with their signs..things could have gone better for this building too, although it shows a bit of character..
carol j. phipps12-Feb-2013 02:54
Excellent find! A fund raiser!!!
bill friedlander12-Feb-2013 02:14

Great red sign. It certainly does pop out! V
Mike H.12-Feb-2013 00:25

Unexpected, but very red -- fine work.
