I did not know they made do-rags in the "house" size.

Nice shot and I noticed that this house can be moved from pace to place, is that correct?

It's one of the early prototypes of the "mobile home".

Here in Florida we call that color "FEMA Blue".

Heh.. yeah I was going to caption it as a redneck roof but then thought of all the people in Florida that aren't rednecks and were stuck with tarped roofs for awhile. Houser's right though, it does look sort of like a do-rag for a house.

This house was actually moved there to be restored. It's in Athens, Texas at the Aboretum. I'm guessing it's some kind of historical home or something. That would make it a thing that moved.

Anyway, thanks for all the comments. I took this photo awhile back and had not uploaded it because I was not sure if I liked it or not.

It's a great photograph. The perspective on the porch is perfect the leafless trees in the foreground offer a decent amount of distraction. The colors are beautiful and vibrant, and the subject matter is humorous. The only complaint I can make, if forced to do so, would be that it feels a little over sharpened to me. But, that's purely a matter of taste.

Well done.

Great photo, glad you posted it! What process did you use? It looks so full of detail... similar to what shadowplay does perhaps?

You've made art out of something that would normally be considered an eyesore.

That is SO an Alaskan roof. I had one on my house all last winter.

By the way, this needs to be in the things that moved pool!
