Thks for the kind words, Paul. Sometimes I'm a little slow, especially wrt
what some people see in some of my photos. What more might it be other
than a pic of a sign? When first seen, the shape jumped out at me, then
the relationship between the pepperoni's on the pizza and the dots on the

Well seen. Nice framing. Excellent perspective/DOF. The context makes
it more than a picture of a sign.

I like it Shel.
I love the smooth OoF background, which makes the sign pop out.
I have to ask, so please don't yell at me if you find my question
blasphemous / insulting . Has the shot been reworked in PS using
the lens blur filter?. If not I'm really impressed with the bokeh.
Neat shot.

Thanks - when are you due back? Personally, I'd rather you made the photo

Hi Bruce ... a few people mentioned the cartoonish nature of the pic. Glad
it gave you a chuckle or a smile.

Hi Frank ...
Yes - I didn't see quite that when I made the snap, but now that you
mention it, I can see a food fight starting on the streets of the city.

Nice, Shel. I like how it looks like a cartoon pasted on a real
photograph (and I mean that in a good way, well seen)
Also, you just made me homesich for San Francisco. I drive by that
corner every day when I'm there. Now it's been two months travelling,
and I miss home a bit.

No, it was a Pentax K body ...
I'd not used the K28/3.5 for quite some time, ever since I got the K30/2.8.
I, too, had forgotten how nice that lens is. What surprised me was how
bright the image in the finder was, even with so slow a lens and so old a
camera.

Shel,
Fun shot for me. The DOF behind the cutout is just about right to not
only make it stand out, but still shows good context and almost seems
to emphasize the cartoonish nature of the cutout. Almost like seeing
something in Roger Rabbit movie with a mix of cartoons and real
people.

Also, of course, Ed Koch is rather well known and was mayor for quite a
while. I have no real idea of how well known the mayor of NY is outside
of the Northeast or the East Coast or the US. Mr. Giuliani is of course
well known because of events on 9/11.

Yes.
In English, the only difference would be, "the former" could mean there
were no others, but allows for more.
By saying "the former mayor" you eliminate any other possibilities as to
who you me

Good photo, and cool sign! It reminded me of the Monster Donuts sign at the
corner Weston Road and Jane Street in Toronto, featuring Godzilla or one of
his kin munching a very large donut. Unfortunately, the sign's no longer
there, and I never got a picture of it.

The use of the title "former mayor" is correct, Frits. . .
So long as he's not the current mayor, he is a former mayor - so that
would apply to Koch as well as Mr. Giuliani..
Just like my "former wife."
The former wife I still talk to prefers that title to "ex-wife" for some
reason!

Anyone who has held the position is refereed to as a former or past
mayor. For example, Clinton, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush Sr., are all
referred to former presidents.

I thought Giuliani was the former mayor of NYC, or is it correct in
English and it can be anyone who had the position in the past, not just
the last one?

There is a great story that the former mayor of NY Ed Koch went into a
restaurant (one sunny day). Another patron walked up to him, poked
him in the chest and said "you were a terrible mayor". Ed promptly
relied in a loud voice " you", to the applause of the rest of the
restaurant.
