I really like this shot looking up from our table at The Yard in Seattle but since I cut off most of the sign trying to include more of the light fixture I’ve held back from posting it. Waiting for the right moment was a good thing though because this week Cheri has challenged us to post an image sharing letters and not necessarily complete words…
I really like those red bricks.
Thanks, we liked them too. 🙂
I like this composition. Lights, shadows, contrast of colors. Nice.
Thanks Janice. 🙂
A mysterious set of letters!
SSE? What could this mean??
Posse… Who are the outlaws?
Fosse… Why is a moat necessary?
Hum… any other thoughts?
Only one person knows for sure.
I like your guesses. 🙂 I took several photos of this wall and believe it or not every one only has 1/2 of this sign… the best shot shows “risse” but I don’t remember what the full sign says. Guess we need to go back for another drink. 😉
LOL! Sounds like a plan!
those bricks are great. such character! thanks for sharing.
You’re so welcome Kris, thanks for your visit and comment. 🙂
I LOVE this shot – I mean really do – the letters and the bricks and the grill over the light – it is a true little slice of the night – and has a feeling that lets us look up with you too. I would be curious to see if you did go back – like to see what shots you took – but this is one of those happy accident photos – and reminds me of how special photos can be – we take a shot of this – and end up with a bit of “that” = which later becomes a gem. 🙂
Thanks so much Yvette, I like your “this and that” idea. I take so many photos and rarely delete anything because you never know when their time to shine will come. 🙂 I kept this one because I liked the composition, light, and colors too but it wasn’t until this letter prompt that I felt the time was right to share. 🙂
well you have inspired me to keep some more of my photos that are not exactly what I wanted – I have been deleting them more and more because as the pixels get bigger and bigger – it seems like they take up more and more space – and well, I find I delete a lot – but maybe I will have to keep some more and transfer old ones to the hard drive… 😉
have a great day. 🙂
love the compo – the round shape of the light against the square shape of the bricks… the unfinished text of the sign just makes it even more intriguing 🙂 🙂
Thanks Alexandra! I agree, having just a few letters in the sign sparks all sorts of imaginative thoughts about what it could be saying. 🙂
Great composition and perspective! Love this capture!
Thanks so much Amy! I’m glad I saved this one!

Perfect! It’s a great shot and I’m so glad you finally got to use it.
Thanks, Meghan. 🙂
This image has quite an air of mystery, a good start to a story.
Thanks, Susan. 🙂 The element of mystery is what I liked about the photo too even though two of us know what really happened that afternoon. 😉
