An interesting creation, indeed. I really like the inclusion of the windscreen wipers. That makes it feel as the viewer is just passing by.

Worthy for the tumbleweed man. It is a very fitting way to capture him while driving.

This is a kick. A little freaky, though. I think if TumbleMan tumbles long enough and collects more tumble weed, he could take over NM. hahaha!

I like all the stuff around him, it reminds me of Godzilla on a rampage. Great find.


not that i know of. i'm sure if it had, though, it would have caused an accident and they wouldn't put it there anymore. at least, when i see him, i have a quick smile before work.

Looks like he's in mid-lurch ;-)

we have wot is known as double demerit points especially during holidays .. if you get booked for speeding or wotever then you have to pay double the fine and you lose double the amount of points off your licence .. we have a point system in australia .. you are given 12 points and if you lose the lot then you lose your licence ..
for example .. you lose 1 point for up to 15kms over the speed limit .. 3 points for 15-30kms over the speed limit .. not wearing a seat belt you lose 3 points ..
which reminds me i must get on the net and find out how many points i have left !!! :)


we have the point system here, too. i don't know if the points are double in those zones, though, i'm a good girl. they put those up where there is construction to try and prevent workers from being killed or injured.
