Is the owner trying to attract attention, or is he color blind, or did he just find a bunch of random paint buckets on a scavenger hunt?

Well spotted Jerry I think they had a party where everyone brought in their paint cans that still had paint and they handed everyone a brush.

This is truly a "fun picture", Jerry. The composition and colors are terrific.

Now that's a spot that will be VERY hard to miss ... unless you are color blind.

Love the picture! Is almost like a pastel - especially if you focus on the top part only .

Thanks for the comments everyone! I'm sure each one of us (you) would have grabbed this shot as you walked by. A good test for the camera's sensors!
