A while ago in Warsaw...

Triggers the memory of the old insurance company commercial, "W-a-u-s-a-u, Waursaur!"  ;D

I like this shot.  The B&W tones come across well on the computer screen.

Thanks Keith. This was shot more than 10 years ago :) I wonder how the place looks today. I remember I noticed the man in the last moment before he walked away from the missing letter A so I did not have enough time to zoom. That was why the picture is heavily cropped. He made a second round around the stadium, but eventually stopped before the billboard and sat down on the grass :)

Appreciate you commenting. This was my last photo from a walk along the Eastside Esplanade, by the Willamette River, this weekend. The graffiti and the One-Way sign caught my attention, but I had a hard time framing an image. Glad you like it. Thanks...

Never been to Australia. Near a small town in the North part of Greece.

Chaotic signs, billboards and what not.

Nice one. Chaotic for sure and doesn't make it less "what not" when one cannot read Japanese  ;D
