I put my feet on the ground for the march and made it almost all the way from 72nd and CPW until my feet and legs gave out at 41st and 11th Ave. It was a gratifying experience and I was most thrilled to see how many generations were represented: little kids, college students, old farts like me, and the very old. The last times I marched in NYC were in 1969-1970 with the Women's movement and other equality protests......much smaller marches, though still mighty and effective. The number of people yesterday was monumental in comparison.
Interesting directional sign from atop a former military outpost overlooking Israel, and the Jordanian and Syrian borders. The outpost is now defunct and has a coffee shop.

5Pointz Aerosol Art Center, Inc. is an outdoor art exhibit space in Long Island City, New York, considered to be the world’s premiere “graffiti Mecca,” where aerosol artists from around the globe paint colorful pieces on the walls of a 200,000-square-foot factory building.
The name 5Pointz signifies the five boroughs coming together as one but, because of its reputation as an epicenter of the graffiti scene, the industrial complex has actually united aerosol artists from across the world. Legendary writers from Canada, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Japan, Brazil, and all over the United States have painted on the building walls, including Stay High 149, Tracy 168, Cope2, Part, and Tats Cru.
Over the past decade, the striking, graffiti-covered warehouse has attracted several hip-hop and R&B stars, including Doug E. Fresh, Kurtis Blow, Grandmaster Kaz, Mobb Deep, Rahzel, DJ JS-1, Boot Camp Clik, Joan Jett, and Joss Stone.
On any given day, 5Pointz visitors can expect to find prominent artists, musicians, deejays, Emcees (rappers), and B-boys (break dancers) on site, in addition to filmmakers, photographers, and entire tour buses full of admirers soaking in the more than 350 Technicolor murals.
The gallery curator is graffiti veteran Jonathan Cohen, best known by his signature tag, “Meres One.” His goal is to convert the five-story, block-long industrial complex at Jackson Avenue and Davis Street, formerly the Phun Phactory, into a graffiti art museum.
Mission Statement
5Pointz gallery curator, Meres, plans to convert the five-story, block-long industrial complex at Jackson Avenue and Davis Street into a graffiti museum. He is currently seeking a 501(c)3 certification for 5Pointz to confer tax-exempt status and allow tax-deductible donations.
In addition, he plans to open a school for aspiring aerosol artists, complete with a formalized curriculum that imparts lessons in teamwork, art history, and entrepreneurship in addition to technique.
Curator
The founder of 5Pointz Aerosol Art Center, Inc. and curator of its outdoor gallery is graffiti veteran Jonathan Cohen, best known by his signature tag, “Meres One.” The Flushing native adopted his tag in his teenage years after determining that M, R, and E were his best calligraphic letters.
Meres took an interest in graffiti at the young age of 13 after seeing an aerosol-based painted Smurf on a wall and flipping through a few graffiti books, and started the The Deadly4Mula (TD4) crew five years later. By the mid-‘90s, Meres had studied art at the Fashion Institute of Technology, sold a few paintings, and was transitioning his craft from tagging and throw-ups to piecing. He produced hundreds of aerosol art murals throughout all five New York boroughs, along the East Coast, and even in Holland.
In 2001, Meres reopened the Phun Phactory in Long Island City, New York, which had been closed for about a year and nearly destroyed by vandals and, over the next five years, transformed the industrial, 5-story, block-long complex into an outdoor art exhibit space he called 5Pointz: “The Institute of Higher Burnin’.”

No clue where the original photo comes from or who took it, I found it here.
Most every week this sign changes. Often it's very, very amusing, as this one demonstrates. Sometimes there are duds (of course, just my most excellent opinion) but most make me chuckle and drive back around for a photo.
... apparently, so do some people in the building ^_^
This is a sign on the door of my company's building ^_^

Alas, the lasses are here no more, as this "Tilted Kilt Pub & Eatery" has closed!
Sometimes photography is just about having fun and looking for things other people may not see. . . .this was taken in a candy shop in Charleston, SC with my iPhone. . .
I’ve returned from a wonderful weekend in the Peak District for my brother’s wedding. I didn’t take too many photos, too busy enjoying myself, plus Rosie Hardy was their photographer so I’m pretty sure she had it covered :)
Ian kept calling me a dork, I was proper star struck meeting Rosie, she was so lovely though! Below is me ruining Rosie’s shot by photographing her during the group shot. Whoops!

This sign at Kathryn and Brian's wedding notes some of their connectedness in terms of their shared criminal justice careers. Through the window is a view of the beautiful outdoor setting where they were married.

I spotted in local tackle shop, bit harsh sign but funny in a way. i think the title speak its self.
While photographing a village sign earlier in the day, somebody suggested we go to the small village of Reach because they had a really good one. They were right! Absolutely amazing, so much detail. A really lovely carved wooden sign.
In Cambridgeshire, England
if it was one man posing i would accept it, but two is too much and looks funny. :P
or, let me know your opinion! heheh.
Massive collection of old signs at the Pioneer Auto Show in Murdo, South Dakota, a fun museum and quirky collection of stuff.
An old rusty sign found in Seattle on Bill Speidel's Underground Tour - from Pioneer Square.
A reworked version of this photo: www.flickr.com/photos/nick_d/4381414723/ - done entirely in Lightroom, using all sorts of masks and adjustments and lens corrections :)
I've tried harder this time to emphasise the texture and feeling of urban decay in this one, I really like the subject and geometry here but I think the super-bright colours on the old version detract a bit from what it should say...
I really liked the bright one before, but I think this version is much more refined :)
