There's nothing too fancy about this photo in my opinion. It's about as straightforward as could be. I stood looking east, the ocean is just ahead and the writing on the back of the building housing the world famous Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ says "This too shall pass." The phrase is open to interpretation and I think it was intended to comment on Asbury, a town that is just down on its luck in so many ways.
While other photos I've posted of Asbury have a fairly depressing tone, I thought it was time for some optimism. "This too shall pass" reminds me that even though stuff might suck right now, the tough days will be gone eventually. All we can hope is that they get easier before they get tougher; but I unfortunately doubt that.
