“A chicken and an egg check in to a cheap motel room. Moments later the chicken sits up against the headboard and lights a cigarette.
The egg says, 'Well, that settles that.' ”

SUBJECT: Neon Sign
I originally noticed this sign on our trip out of town today. My father-in-law cooked some turtle soup as part of a fund raiser at a tavern in his hometown. So we went there to partake in some good eats. After we returned, I left the house with the intention of taking a few photos at a cemetery. I spent about 45 minutes there, but just wasn't getting what I wanted. I remembered this sign and drove up, parked and took the picture. I'm getting less and less self-conscious when taking photographs. I'm not completely at ease yet, but eventually I'll get there!
OMGosh - you have inspired me. We have loads of those "no tell" motels down the road a bit from us. Their signs are equally hilarious!
ReplyDeleteI love this one! I'm getting more at ease about taking pictures too, but my hubby isn't too sure when he is with me!
ReplyDeleteI think we should all go on a shoot together so that we can overcome our self consciousness of taking photos out in public.
ReplyDeleteI love this shot!!
Great photo! I'm getting more comfortable in some settings, and I think my husband is getting more used to me having my camera with me all the time, and knowing that I'll probably take a pic of something! :)
ReplyDeleteETW - We have a few more "no tells" around this area that I plan to capture..the old neon signs are great!
ReplyDeleteMari - HH is very encouraging, I'm the one who hesitates.
Dot O - I'm game!
Christina - I have a feeling that we'll convert ourselves and our families whether we like it or not. ;)
