    No Trespassing

    "NO TRESPASSING" signs just make you want to do it even more! :devil:

    Whenever my wife and I pass by signs like this and see mysterious buildings in the middle of no where...we think it is some top secret X-FILES location.

    Opinions are always welcome!

    How'd you get the sky so blue and the clouds so white and fluffy? That is just awesome!

    Thanks. I used a Circular Polarizer from Promaster. It was 114 degrees at the Nevada/California stateline but the clouds were so beautiful it was worth burning outside for a shot.

    I think it's neat, really neat! You are right that it could come straight from the x-files.
    My only nitpick is that the the sign is slightly at angle. I would have faced is straight or I would have shot it more at angle, not something in betwen. That sky kills....

    Thanks for the comments Seb. Honestly, your recent work on the island inspired my shooting in the desert over the weekend. With that being said, I'm really happy this shot got your attention.

    Your comment will make me look closer at all the details in my composition. Many thanks!

    Re: No Trespassing

    Very nice manacsa. I'll echo everyone's sentiment here. The sky makes this shot. Just gorgeous. The other elements also give me something to look at and bounces my eyes neetly around the image. Sign, post, structure at the distance, skies, and around and around.
