 You know you can't stop singing it!

And ugh.... I see that I misspelled "believin". I can't "believe" I did that. It's been storming and I cannot get back out to fix this. Soooo - here it is. I predict 15 comments about my misspelling. I hope the voters are kind. At least I did not use text language :D

*One more comment before submission: PennyStreet suggested that I change the original title from "Life is a Journey" to "Life is a Journie" just to make fun of my spelling. And in it goes. :D :D

Editing: Crop, used Nik Analog Efex Pro 2 (Classic Camera 7) to make the sign pop and add a grunge effect. Then Color Efex 4 Pro Contrast. In Photoshop, Desat to minimize background colors, cloned out tree bits and a line.

Believin' is spelled B-E-L-I-E-V-I-N-apostrophe. *grin*


But... I LOVE THIS IMAGE!

I like this - has a pop art feel to it. Don't stop!

Spelling counts!! Some of the "Lights" could have been pulled back a bit in this way, because it just doesn't have me "Feelin' That Way"

Sorry, but spelling errors just jump out at me, bite me on the nose and won't let go, no matter how hard I try to ignore the pain.

I make errors, too, in everyday chats, but I'd try very hard to get it right when it involves only three plus four words in a challenge image ... two mistakes in 7 words is two too many for me.

Damn Steve Perry. Wish 'Belevin' was spelled right. Maybe I'm missing the irony given your title. Cool photo, think it will do well.

I am taking part in the "Comment on the first 10 photos during voting" challenge and you are photo #4

Really dig the concept and processing, great job. The crop have been a lot better. The amount of white on the sides is not even (there may even be some distortion with the verticals that could have been corrected) and was cut off from the top and bottom. Cropped so all sides of the sign were the same would have made this a really strong image.

Thanks a lot, now I'll have that tune stuck in my head for the rest of the day. :]
Nice different take in this challenge.
