I think Isaiah Thomas warned me about this when I was young ("That's right, Angela. Or when flying kites."). But what's with the arrows pointing up *and* down?
waiting to go down on the steepest cable-driven funicular railway in the world
from wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katoomba_Scenic_Railway
"The Scenic Railway is the steepest cable-driven funicular railway in the world, the steepest incline of 52 degrees contained within a total incline distance of 415 metres. It was originally constructed for a coal and oil shale mining operation in the Jamison Valley in the 1880s, in order to haul the coal and shale from the valley floor up to the escarpment above. From 1928 to 1945 it carried coal during the week and Passengers at weekends. The coal mine was closed in 1945 and it became a permanent Tourist Attraction."
A collection of caution reflector things sitting on the sidewalk on Bloor Street in Toronto. The reflection on these things is awesome!

Baker Beach, San Francisco, CA on a very stormy day at high tide. Someone's dog kept running in front of the camera (phone). Just love how this sign, cautioning people about the dangerous undercurrents, got sucked under by the undercurrents...

Trying to cross through that gate so we could photograph the cows was ridiculous, turned into some kind of muddy ballet.
This was my favourite photo of the sky to date I think, just managed to catch some birds flying across the path to show it off some more.
This sign, standing tall in the parking lot at Boulders Beach, has to be a contender for 'best SA sign, ever".

There are signs at every juncture here to prevent diseases like Parvo and Canine Influenza.
BTW, we took these measures because Karri (Moondance Standard Poodles) suggested it. Karri's advice has been invaluable.
This was in the little walkway that takes you from the gate to board the plane. I just love those caution signs with the little stick-man -- some of them are funnier than others but I feel like he's always getting into some kind of trouble. The message "Caution: Uneven Surfaces" has this unsaid subtext ("Watch Your Feet, Try Not to Trip") but in case you can't read, every Caution sign has to show poor stick-man actually doing whatever it is they're warning you not to do. He must be awfully clumsy.
Sometimes these signs are *only* a picture of a stick-man, with no words at all (more on this later in this Set of photos), and those are often the funniest. The ones with words sometimes have pictures whose intention I can understand, but only because of the supplementary context provided by the words -- if I couldn't read, and the actual environmental/situational context didn't provide the information (let's say you found the sign in a janitor's closet), how would you know what it was warning you against? How would you know where to post the sign?
