OK, listen up all you chickens. You’ve got a choice…

Must be mafia farmers. Seems to work ok

  1. I think its the chickens lay or the farmer goes bust and the chickens get fried…

    Either way the chickens end up the same way, its just the timing that changes.

    The angles on this photo are weird. By the lintel, the photo was taken down the side of the building, yet the sign doesn’t look distorted at all. maybe its just me.

  2. yeah… some sort of optical illusion going on here 🙂

    love the colours though…

  3. that is astonishing – perspective and message alike…

    flabbergasted 🙂

  4. You seem to have visited the same local farm I went to! Why didn’t I think to include the door in my picture? I need to practice composition.

  5. heh… thanks… I really liked the colors on the door. The funky perspective comes from the wide-angle shot, something that I have been playing with in the new pocket cameras (I recently ditched the Lumix and tried Canon, both of which go to 28mm equivalent, as in this shot). There is a bit of wood to the right which I cropped out, so the sign was more toward the center frame, and less distorted.

    One of my biggest surprises in photography is the joy of wide angle perspectives, something that lacks a common analog (like macro to microscopes and telephoto to telescopes).
