A picture I've thought of doing before would be similar in a way to this. It's probably actually fairly common, because many cities have alternating one way streets. The idea is to photograph several of them with a really long lens. That way they'll look like they're right next to each other but pointing opposite directions.

Scott,
I appreciate your comments. I played around with the 'negative' image sign pointed different ways and truly inverted with the wording backwards, but decided on this one. I tend to agree with your assessment, though, I was never really happy with any of the variations and finally settled on this one.

This was a good idea...IMO if just the sign would have been reversed like on the bottom have, it would have been a little more powerful. Another way would have been catching a car in the picture and then reversing the sign. I still think the idea is an awesome one.
