mcgarity 0 Posted May 15, 2006 Anne-Sophie I managed to keep my feet on solid ground. I am not terribly fond of heights and that bridge is 215 meters tall. It wasn't hard to resist temptation. :) Your subway story brings back memories. My favorite mangled English sign of all time was on a massage parlor in Taiwan. It read "turkey bath and suddatorium." I was still chuckling a week later. Thanks for commenting. :) Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted May 24, 2006 Strange signs would make a good category for a photo collection. Beautiful misty colors you have here. Link to comment
mcgarity 0 Posted May 24, 2006 Thank you Kim. The morning I took this was the first opportunity of my trip to do any real photography. The previous two days there had been a lot of fog over the river very early in the morning. I love shooting in inclement weather so thats what I was hoping for. I got my wish. The odd thing is, I spent all kind of time carefully composing various shots with a tripod. Some of those did come out okay. But this is the one I like the most. Wouldn't you know, its a hand held shot taken out the window of a car on the spur of the moment. I was amazed it came out sharp considering the slow shutter speed. Re a wierd signs collection, now you've got me thinking. It might make for an interesting book at that. :) Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted May 24, 2006 That's to go along with the book of strange fire hydrant locations :~) Link to comment
mcgarity 0 Posted May 25, 2006 Those should be easy to find. All I have to do is turn the dogs loose. :) Link to comment
