This tight backalley, near Baocheng Road, has plenty of interesting visual clutter....from late 2019 - the lock-down wasn't that far in the future....
Mt. Aso, the largest active volcano in Japan, has a caldera spanning 25 kilometres north-south and 18 km east-west with a circumference of around 120 km, formed as a result of four huge caldera eruptions that took place over a period 90,000–300,000 years ago.
You know for years I have been thinking this was the Pacific Ocean, offshore from Sydney Australia, but now after zooming out with Google Maps what I see is the Tasman Sea, and the Pacific Ocean is a bit more up and over to the right. Anyway this sign and fence are there to stop you falling of the edge of the firm world and into the water below; or to stop you sloping on ice? I don't think so. A perfect day at Bronte Beach, not a cloud in the sky; whatever ocean or sea that may be.

NEW ROAD AYOUT AHEAD IN BELFAST CITY
Looking at this sign in detail it would appear that whoever created it made an error … there is no indication that the “L” was removed after the manufacture of the sign.
As I came round a corner on the Kawa, knee slider scraping on the ground (only joking) I saw this Ride With Caution sign. According to a web search the National Cyclists Union used to put these up all over the place, warning cyclists of steep hills and stuff. Before they ran out of money and went out of existence after a long battle with a rival.
I absolutely love the sign, though.
The Dixie Highway was planned out in December 1914 to connect the Midwest with the South, from Chicago to Miami.
By the mid-1920s, the project was largely completed with a network of roads interconnected across 10 states with more than 5,000 miles of paved, bricked road. But, by 1927, Dixie Highway became part of the US Route System, and was therefore, mostly abandoned. But, a portion of it still remains in remote Florida, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places on April 20, 2005.
“It’s one of the oldest roads in America,” according to the historian.
Upon on my arrival, I started from south toward north, before I entered, there is a warning: “Travel at your own risk.” And another prohibiting the removal of the bricks in the road. Doing so, it says, warrants prosecution “to the fullest extent of the law.”
The historic stretch of Old Dixie Highway is 10 miles long, and would recommend to drive slowly as there are some thick soft-sand on the road that could cause slide off from the road if driving too fast.
Interesting fact: The brick was manufactured by the Graves Shale Brick Company in Birmingham, Alabama, belonging to a slave-owning man who fought for the Confederacy. It took 237,600 such bricks to build just 1 mile of road, 9 feet wide. Others are with the words "SOUTHERN CLAY MFG CO” for the Southern Clay Manufacturing Company in Tennessee.

"R.F. RADIATION" markings with red and white stripes surround the area from which the Very Low Frequency (VLF) trailing wire antenna was mounted. High-powered VLF radio equipment allowed command and control aircraft to communicate with ballistic missile submarines.
This aircraft was originally delivered as a KC-135A, and later modified for Post Attack Command Control System (PACCS) service.
PACCS ensured that the National Command Authority could maintain command and control in the event of a nuclear war. See:

My wonderful wife, Donna, took this photo with her iPhone 7. Daughter, Amanda, had had a mishap and D. drove her to Wellstar’s new facility on Roswell Road (Hwy. 120).

The area contains loose edge rocks and overhangs.

Typos and too few please and bitte. But Verantwortlichkeit sounds German enough to my ear. Two prefixes, two postfixes, and one syllable in between.
Floodway warning sign in the dry outback of Australia. Leigh Creek. Northern South Australia. Just in case it rains one year you can never be too careful!
That this sign is needed tells me there are some pretty stupid people out there. What you don't see is the 150 foot vertical cliff down to the ocean on the other side of the fence.
A grade C listed structure, the Scottish Automobile Club sign is an early example, and rare survivor, of road safety signage linked to the increase in automobile ownership in the early 20th century.
It is also a rare example of an early Scottish Automobile Club sign, bef ore the organisation changed its name to 'Royal Scottish Automobile Club' in 1917.
The level crossing warning signal is still there on the Yenping North Road, once a level crossing. The train runs underground and were it runs before is clearly visible in the pavement.
A collection of signs noticed during our December 2016 visit to China. Signs have either bad grammar, spelling mistakes or just fun.
You can rent a step minder if you are too busy to mind them yourself.
What they were warning about was the steep, narrow, wood steps to climb 9 floors inside the Red Pagoda.

This looks like the original rickety bridge

RUDYARD LAKE STEAM RAILWAY
The railway runs for 1+1⁄2 miles (2.4 km) on the track bed of an old standard gauge North Staffordshire Railway line. The railway runs along the side of Rudyard Lake, near Leek in North Staffordshire. The current line started in 1985 and is 10+1⁄4 in (260 mm) gauge, and operates to a timetable. It was built by John Eastman of Congleton working on his own over a period of ten years. In October 2000, he sold the railway to Rudyard Lake Steam Railway Ltd, who have developed it since that date. Trains run at weekends and bank holidays from March to November, with more regular services from Easter to October and daily during school holidays. The railway is a member of Britains Great Little Railways and is a member of the Heritage Railway Association

I saw this sign in the toilet at work. Somebody has tried to correct the mistake. It made me chuckle though... and nearly cry.
I cannot believe that this has become my most interesting photo! I'm not entirely sure what to make of that!
Alcohol Control Area sign at the Hythe Quay on the River Blackwater Estuary at Maldon in Essex (UK).
Alcohol Control Area
You could be arrested and fined up to £500
If you drink alcohol in this public area after a Police Officer / Accredited Officer has told you to stop.
If you do not hand over your alcohol when told to do so by a Police Officer / Accredited Officer.
I'm curious to know exactly what is an 'Accredited Officer'..
Thank you to my regular photostream, contributor David for taking this photograph and is posted here with very kind permission.
