    I think it's inflatable..."Come in radio, this is unit 91"...

    I like the shot, but I think the selective coloring detracts from it. Is this really about the price of gasoline? headscratch.gif I'd try to reprocess it to make the dummy stand out more in straight B&W.

    Richard, I'm thinking that you're thinking of something more along these lines. I guess the theme initially was lady AND prices. rolleyes1.gif

    Richard, Thanks a bunch! I like it better also! I went out to take some night shots in town and she caught my eye!

    Looks good! It's a unique shot, for sure. I dig it.

    I like the "Lady and Prices" theme much more though......that is lost without the colored prices.
    If it was a real lady (apologies to Wayne), then perhaps, "more about the lady" shot would be better.

    Hey Taz, No apologies necessary! Here she is from another angle under the yellow glow of high pressure sodium lighting in living color! As always thanks for taking the time to take a look and comment!

    I like the stacked verticals of all the windows in the first shot. The way they lead-in to the gas station beyond. Nothing says cheap like a gas station on the corner. Perfect for this image. Thank you!

    Carter, thank you so much. I thought also that the viewers eye was gradually directed towards the "prices" sign and thought ...Hey, why not! It goes with the theme. Thanks again!
