I'm going to do a retake of this to get a sharper photo. I took this on the drive by sooooo I'll see if I can improve on it a little.

Well Richard, we're getting old, sometimes my eyes get so blurry I have to put drops in them! LOL What's really funny is at first I thought it was too dull and now it seems fine. It musta just grown on us both Richard. ;o)

Now Shirley, that is funny, I was looking at this yesterday and thought it was the retake and was about to comment when I was distracted: hmmmm. It looks sharper than I remember. hmmm

Well, thank you so much for the comments and HAHA beat ya to it! (just teasing!) As you can see, the retake didn't come about. I think I am starting to get used to this one and I'll keep it. Colin! That was a great idea to look in the phone book! Tell your family they only have to start worrying when you don't use the phone book and just start cruising up and down every street within miles of your home. (wait I do that) LOL I didn't know this place was there. I'd gone for chinese pick-up (a place I go to all the time) for super and HA there it was 2 stores down! Never ever saw it there before.

Nice idea and again good taste with frame. Like this cut of the sign. It gives some dynamic to the picture.

Not fair, spent a sunday afternoon after something similar (got the name from yellow pages) but when I got there, their logo was rubbish - plus my family are now convinced I've gone slightly mad. Yours is great, there are details on the Details, if you see what I mean.

Very well done Shirley. I was going to look for one ofthese signs myself. You beat me to it. Good detail. Cheers.

Shirley, yes it is not as sharp as you usual work. You need more DETAIL in this image pun intended :) It looks like were thinking along similar lines. See my latest post
