The greatest photographic discovery I've ever made was the Big Boy Graveyard, west of Marquette, MI. It's surreal to see these large happy statues buried in the woods, setting out to rot. Sadly, this Big Boy is even missing his hamburger.

    This would make a good entry in "out of place" too.

    Voted! Love the leaf colors! Big Boy looks so weathered though and odd without his burger.
