a touch of color
yellow brick road

GWUniversity was holding a canned food drive, and some very creative person decided to make a work of art out of it. This was modeled after the yellow brick road to emerald city.

From the thumbnail, I had no idea what this was. Up close I am blown away by the creativity someone had to make this, and by your creativity to capture it photographically so well. I see the yellow brick road, emerald city in green rising out of the red poppy field, the blue sky, and a rainbow arching above it all. Fantastic!

That is a creative display. Maybe it will attract more food by creating a food display competition.

Wow! This is still better than Andy Warhol's work with his cans of Campbell tomato soup! It should be "conserved" as a piece of art, I also like the contrast with the brick wall.
