Challenge: Road Signs Re-revisited (Basic Editing I)
Camera: Sony DSC-F717
Location: Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport
Date: Jan 18, 2004
Aperture: f/8.0
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/500th
Galleries: Urban, Action
Date Uploaded: Jan 18, 2004

 There is a street intersection with many different types of roadsigns about 100 yards off the end of one airport runway at Phoenix, Arizona's Sky Harbor Airport.

I had a particular set of roadsigns I wanted to capture and this was not my original idea; but it was a nice, clean shot and the sign seemed appropriate for an aircraft coming in about 200-300 meters or so from touchdown.

Image cropped, color adjusted, USM applied and a little noise reduction.

So your deductive comments on my Eucalyptus tree led me to your page. Nice photos! And I see you have been well exposed (pun intended) in Arizona.

Too bad, I'm sure he wants to turn around. Nice catch, and a great angle to make the point.

airplane shots are hard to make. Good job with this one, but i just wish it was a little sharper, or maybe if there were some clouds in the sky. But what can you do about the weather?

nice composition and great capture - how long did you have to wait to get that one? it seems a little oversharpened, though.

Okay, wow - is this for real? Looks like a manipulated image, but then again, maybe that's just 'cuz it's beyond me at this point!
