As blessed by subimatt, this assignment is to show off those cool signs that people see when they drive into your hometown (or where you live now).

Guidelines (just to keep us all on track)

* Photo(s) must relate to the Theme in some way. Creative relation to the theme is certainly allowed (and encouraged). Anything that is related in some way is legal.
* Assignment is open.
* Only photos that have been shot within the assignment date range are allowed.
* No signup is required, participation is encouraged regardless of skill or equipment level (after all, its not the camera, it’s the photographer,)…we’re here to have fun.
* Photo size limit: 800px on the longest side
* Basically, photograph however you like and normally do…whatever photography is to you. As many (or few) bodies/lenses/formats//Post-processing as you’d like. Sticking to basic PP is encouraged, tho’.
* If you’d like, post brief but relevant photo information and note PP (if any) is done (*Free GIMP software*). Maintain EXIF data if possible.
* Keep comments on topic, constructive, and considerate.
* Have fun!!!

The problem for me, too, is all the cool sort of "Welcome to Durham" stuff is all off busy freeways/highways... there's not really anywhere to set up for a photo.

It's a great idea, though.

Yeah, I'd like to make this one ongoing. I'll get Matt to adjust

Its actually a good Idea, ive been meaning to add to this.

I will post a photo of my hometown sign this week. Maybe we can all try and do the same for this weeks' "Shawn-esque challenge"

Better late than never. This is one of the many hand carved wooden signs for my wife's parent's village, Port Ludlow. It's referred to as "A village in the woods by the bay"

Dude, don't you live in a river or something?
