welcome back.
I like the people crossing sign. Is there a place where intelligent
people are allowed to cross?


With it was a closer view of something in the same scene, seen on the

Reminds me of John Isaac's work. Not the subject matter, but in seeing
ability. Nicely done.


Some things in the original view of the same photos have been moved,
deleted, and changed in Photoshop, but if you don't see the9Not in subject, but in ability to see.
alterations then they never happened.

The sign was the original subject matter since I have a collection of
signs that strike me as amusing. However, I included a wide shot and
later found that to be the interesting shot.

While most of the signs I've taken photographs of are funny, I took
this in 2008 and *still* can't figure out what it's all about.

The sign's maker took the trouble to make the sign and place it in a
busy area off the Interstate, but I have no idea what message he/she
was trying to convey.


I look for unintended humor in signs.

This image is quite ordinary

Now I add information. It was taken in the emergency room at a hospital.
The juxtaposition made me nervous.

People can talk all they want to about the advantages of this over
that in equipment and supporting software, but if you don't see
there's a photograph there, you don't have a photograph.

Yup

WTF was that supposed to be,...a postage stamp? Could you possibly have
got it down to micro-dot size?

Sorry. It was a cropped iPhone image. The technical aspects are not the
point.

What technical aspects?
There are no aspects at all.
That image is so small it isn't even useful as an icon or button. As
for the content and subject matter it remains a mystery made impossible
to view due to shrinkage.

is a photograph of a sign on a wire fence surrounding a water storage
tank in Fort Canning Park, Singapore. There is little doubt what this
one is all about.
