Small town sign

[malachite]

I'm as facinated with the whole picture and border, as I am the fact that someone has a shop that specializes in socks

Chaseypants, just drive on over!

Ok, so after I get on Interstate-10 East...then what??

I'll let you know after about 18 hours or so....stay sharp! There will be an interstate change eventually, and I'd hate for you to miss it.

Could just go 5-6 hours, stop in Phoenix, and party with Voods and I

Not just ANY shop, Malachite... This jpeg image is too small to show it, but the print clearly shows the sign way-y-y off to the right side of the image, which reads: "WORLD'S LARGEST SOCK OUTLET!"

That was one reason I decided to go with the wide-angle lens; I just had to get that sign in there, too.

Nice ole rustic feeling. I love the fact that it is darkroom generated.
Very Nice photo.

beautiful composition- the lines draw the eye right into the sign, which is also the lightest part of the image, straddling the left third verticle.

i love the mood in this- great contrast and grit.

great use of the wide-angle!

Nice shot how did you get that border? It is great.

Wow, thanks guys!

Nikon90, this is a "full bleed" print and the effect you are seeing is shadow fall-off from the negative holder. Although it reduces the overall size of your image, it's my favorite print "look".

Terrific shot, I feel like I am looking at the neighborhood I grow up in many years ago.
