Description
A protest sign is displayed outdoors against a backdrop of a wooden picket fence and trees with autumn foliage. The sign, written in red letters on a wooden board, states “PROPERTY VALUE ZERO TAXES 700,” criticizing high taxes despite low property value. The image has a strong red color cast that reduces overall contrast and visibility of finer details.
