This sign cracked me up when I saw it last fall on a bike trail near us. Luckily I remembered where it was... on the Montour Trail. In reality, this isn't a bad neighborhood or anything; it's just a bike trail that happens to go right by a shooting range. Thanks to the self-timer, I also played the part of the corpse. :)

Montour Trail? (a place near me). Not too bad.Could be better, but that would require more liberal editing rules.

looks like a fun shot. The general lack of color seems to center attention on the drama of the scene. I bet you were itching to clone that post out of the background!

Sign would look better if it ran parallel to the frame. Good idea for the shot.
