My first/favorite "cool" shot

Kenundrum

so i've been lurking here and slowly posting photos i've been taking to my gallery since i got a new camera at the beginning of this month... i took this shot with my friend's digital rebel xt and it just stood out at me as fun to look at. it's got that weathervane effect where you can't really tell which direction the sign is facing.


what do you all think?

re first cool shot
Certainly like the shot- especially as it looks like something hit it on the left hand side and certainly stopped. As for which direction it's facing- I can only see it facing to the right.

Welcome to dGrin and cool shots!

Brian made me realize the fun significance of the "splat" as a play on the word "stop" but it's not what I saw initially.

i never thought of that when taking it... although i did notice it... i guess i'll see about posting my photos more often... interesting what other think! thanks
however- when i look at it (might just be my eyes) i can see it going back and forth between facing up/right and down/left (relative to the photo). when i took the shot i was to the left below the sign in a moving car. well... the driver likes to think that stop signs with white borders are optional :-)
