awesome. i'm diggin all these that you're doing.

Very interesting

Wow...very eerie, but lovin it!

nice! how was this taken?? how long was the exposure?

Awesome man, loving the green theme...well done.

Nice situation, and shot. Only thing that might be too hot are the lights, but I guess you knew that. Can be fixed fairly easily, next time you go, as long as you bracket the shots.

Now I realize why I haven't ever seen the 'Give Way' or 'Prepare to Stop' signs. Being in Australia might have something to do with that. Yeah, I'm a rocket scientist...???
If they are truly green, wait'll you see the signs from this side of the world. As such, you chose a nice location for this...so, keep it up.

This is a cool shot. Giving me ideas!

This shot is really cool. I love all the green.

Here, in Australia, Give Way signs ARE NOT GREEN, they are red - Yes, I changed them *shock horror*

Shot in RAW, ISO 200, f/4 for 30 seconds (on aperture priority)

Then I adjusted the red and yellow hue to be green (obviously), desdaturated the yellow a bit and increased the saturation on the green.

Great idea!!
I think I will be doing one of these, but will start July 1st (just so it is fairly balanced, haha)...

Great shot!!

That's a really great shot. Give Way? I like that better than Yield... we're so boring over here.

That light on the tree is just so good. Without it your head wouldn't be distinct, but it's so subtle you don't even notice it. I'm guessing it took you a few tries to get this shot right? It's pretty damn good.

Originally i just thought, Hey I need a photo for today... Hey I haven't done any traffic trails for a while. HEY! So, off I went to Beecroft Road. That was actually the first shot I took there, then I took 4 more, then came home, only to discover that the middle 3 were BLURRY! (I was using my trusty RC-1 Remote, which auto-focuses when you click it) And the first looked better than the 5th, so I chose the first and opened up Photoshop. Up popped up the RAW adjustment settings. First I just made it a little warmer and increased the contrast. Then I remembered what I had TRIED to do a while ago - a shot with ONLY GREEN and everything else B&W. So I tried it, and liked it, so I did it.
