It's a noun...it's a verb...it's time for a cocktail!

I just couldn't resist this wonderful sign with the patina of age upon it. It conveyed a feeling of a bygone era--a feeling I tried to capture.

Super cool sign, John! The color just pops off the screen! You have captured the feeling of the bygone era very well!

That's cool, love the angle, colors and most of all, the touch of rust around the lamp ends, gives the natural aged look. Well seen and captured John.

I love your comp on this John with the sky behind the letters, and the diagonal tilt. And, I'm going with verb and wishing I could do that right now! Another one of your trademark fabulous finds!!
