As some might realize I have a thing for signs, stupid signs that is. While driving home from a errand today I noticed just such a sign. The lighting was unusable so I decided to go shoot it in the morning.
When I got home I was thinking about the sign and recalled a discussion with Steven several months ago about another local sign. As most of our discussions they a to say the least weird. This was about some signs recently posted here which started, "Free Prostitute Zone." That sign left a lot of latitude for interpretation. I thought that might do for an image so I set out to find one.
Seems someone has pointed out the possibilities of that sign and replaced them with one a little clearer. I was disappointed with new sign so I took an imaged and headed home disappointed. When I got home I down loaded the image and glanced at it.
I found the dirty old man in me rolling on the floor laughing. Seems the yellow sign behind the main sign took on a totally new meaning.
After an absence from doing photography on a regular basis I decided to do a-picture-a-day-for-a-year project. As a direction I am attempting to use modern images where possible to relate times in my photographic past. As I am no longer a spring chicken, I can get philosophical some times. As a Christian I often see God possibly using me and my photography to send short messages. I hope you enjoy these images as much as I have enjoyed making them around Monroe, NC. TheElmo

292: The Color Blue
I went back to the Art Walk today. In reviewing many items it seems the trend is to bright flashy colors. With this in mind When I walked outside, I found this in the gutter and it seemed to fit.

290: Back Yard Bird
Today was a rainy dull day. The type of day where I like to sit on the front porch and read my Bible and meditate. However today I decided to use the side porch. As I walked out the door Walla!!! I ducked back in the house, grabbed the camera and did the best I could with the existing camera configuration.

289: Front Porch Companion
Over the past few months I have not been photo active. This afternoon while meditating on the front porch, one of my companions showed up. I decided that as fall is approaching it might be a good idea to get a snapshot of my little friend.

288: Nice folks
This week started on a low spot I lost one of me closest friend. Well today I got a little pick-me-up. I receive a package in the mail from a distant relative. It contained the first picture (among many others) of my grandfather - Grandfather.
He passed in 1907 so the image is over 100 years old.
Thanks
