Here is another photo from Newburyport, MA that I took last weekend. This is a store front that was downtown. The sign may welcome free speech but if you notice in the upper left corner on the little sticker you wont get the sign for free because it costs $16.

Excellent choice of layout, very good shot, perfect definition of the image. I really like the composition and colors.
I’m astonished to see Fall mums growing. They’re splendid, but already? Right now we’re having the heavy rains from Gustav, but when that passes through it’ll be hot again for sometime. Around October 1st it might be safe enough to plant pansies that will grow in our garden all Winter and then die by June 1st from the heat. Such an odd contrast in weather. I’ve droned on, but I like your image. Odd sign; beautiful capture.

I wish free speech really did cost only 16 dollars. I wouldn’t mind paying that at all
But for something thats only symbolic.. I like how the flowers are included in this shot and the little bits and bobs we get to see through the glass.
