Thanks for the comments all! I was playing with HDR, and this popped out and grabbed me. It's nice to have an unusual take on what is a very common view.

How Strikingly stark! Almost like a pictorial of the problems brewing in this country with our liberties, but then there are still glimmers of hope, just as in Your photo. Great Work.

Great shot. Do you have a version that is not HDR?

I have this http://www.flickr.com/photos/cscashby/6650619097/in/set-72157628754643265 which is much more photo-realistic, but still HDR. To be honest the time of day meant it was reasonably uninspiring as a single exposure!
