Challenge: Road Signs Re-revisited (Basic Editing I)
Camera: Fujifilm FinePix S602Z
Location: Prospect, Nova Scotia, Canada
Date: Jan 18, 2004
Aperture: f 7.0
ISO: 160
Shutter: 1 / 80
Galleries: Humorous, Rural
Date Uploaded: Jan 20, 2004

 I shot this in a small coastal village called Prospect about 30 minutes away from where I live. I couldn't believe my luck!. And yes, I was driving slow enough to read the sign! That's why I turned around and took a shot of it. Too bad the light was so bad that day.

If you look closely at the image you'll see that the glasses are real.

Shot on aperture priority with +1/3 EV. Cropped from original and played a bit with Levels, Hue/Saturation, Color Balance, resized and finished with USM.

For those who bashed this image: Got you first...

I know this isn't the greatest, but I believe that it still didn't deserve five 1's and twelve 2's. At least I had some originality and didn't shoot some stupid STOP sign or a basic street sign. Like my Photographer Comments says...

This should have done better! It sure is a road sign and an imaginative one as well. Good find.

Maybe if you had a car going by, blurred.

Interesting - but is it a road sign? I'm not sure.

I thinkl the point of view of this photo is really witty, it seems at first sight that the car at the bottom has crashed at the bottom of the road. Cool.

I don't think this fits the subject matter of road signs.
