I really like the "peaches" sign...can't really say why...maybe it's the combination of the font and the contrast...either way, I like it. Did you buy any?

@Melissa: thanks you very much melissa! I love quirky signs and buildings...this one just caught my eye...I actually took this shot from my car window...heading to cedar key in a rush...so i didn't get out to buy anything...
I really like the active dodging work y’ve done on this in addition to a very smooth b&w image. As Melissa says, the eye is taken to the signage but there is more of interest to be seen in those shadows, too. Real neat image.
This reminds me a great deal of the 1930s photos by the FSA photographers. A very vintage feel to it, with good command of tone.

How's the price? I enjoy going to my local farmer's market. The price is tad high but the prodcues are fresh and beautifully grown. I love the edge you made for this shot, it goes well with black and white.
Don't forget about the local sweet potatoes! Just because they don't have a fancy banner doesn't make them less important. I'm just sayin'. (Interesting crop, by the way.)
whoa, I almost thought you had typed in "Peaches." It kind of helps hide the fact that you chopped the poor guy's head off.
Except for that, it does have a real old-timey feel. Nicely done!
