John
Is he the "meter maid"? I always like images of birds perched on signs. It would have been nice to get the sun more direct to prevent the shadow on the back but.....then you wouldn't have been able to get the sign. The head is lit nicely, though.

Very nicely composed and funny sign for the bird to be perched over :)
Only wish the bird's shadow was not there.

John shouldn't be that hard to remove the shadow I particularly like the birds expression Sort of reacting to the sign !!!!

btw when the image was made you could see the shadow I'm usually in the look out For this one just going a little lower would have eliminated the shadow even with the slight off sun angle !!!
