You can guess what part of stylish photo composition annoys me the most.

Thanks, Ed - for running these!

Hard to find any telephone or flag poles in a parking lot and no signs in the corner [emoji1]

Unfortunately on the left side is pole

 

[fletch09]

good catch. but that is a light pole.
do you not have anything better to do than look for poles in pictures ????????
since it is a type of pole, but not in the list, I'll will let Roadie call foul or no foul.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Nothing "offroad" about topic either. Could just as easy be in front of building or wall or something....

 

[fletch09]

are you on one of those devices not seeing the purple text?
true nothing "offroad" about the topic,
was just being a smartass since Blazing and I were not technically on the road.

 

[Capote]

I got confused by some of the entries, I know what roadie said, but it took me a while to find the poles and what not...

I was thinking you meant 3rd topic in a row...not his, mine and your pics. I did miss the purple in quick reading. I just happened to have the pole catch my peripheral and figured I would make you take another sweet pic. It was also an easy way to throw out some ideas for those that thought it might of needed to be a rural or outdoor pick.

I do not understand how the entries confused you or what poles you found? We all made sure not to have poles as the topic asked.

I just caught a lil background one on Fletch's but it REALLY should not have confused you since I circled it.

I read the entry criteria wrong....my mistake. Was hard to read on my phone..

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Ahh

your not alone, i too, had to re-read the topic.
but not very well, since HARDTRAILZ found a post in mine

 

[BlazingTrails]

I didn't think it was confusing at all, NO POLES

 

[The_Roadie]

I meant, but failed to say, no poles of any sort, where phone, flag, and sign were three examples of the unwanted poles. So a lamp pole could be argued to be within the letter, but not the spirit, of the contest. What kills me is pics that have a pole growing out of the vehicle's roof. That's just careless composition I'm trying to get people to really look at and avoid.
