I won't tell you where this photo was taken, other than to point out the obvious, that the US phone number indicates an area code on the Washington State peninsula, but isn't this a great photograph? The house with its peeling paint and boarded up windows looks like something out of a Stephen King movie, and the sign is just a lovely focus, especially with that bold-faced addition on the bottom: CRIME SCENE CLEAN-UP. I know it's an important business, but do you put it on your billboard? That seems to me the sort of thing that you put in your Yellow pages ad, not your billboard. It's not as if crime scene clean-up is a spur of the moment, "Oh, I should stop in there. I have a crime scene I've needed cleaning for a couple of weeks" thing.
