Big Star

26 Oct 2005

This is one of my earliest shots, taken with my friends camera, the one I frequently borrowed and occassionally returned! I took the shot one evening after H & I had gone out to see a film. As we walked back to the car we passed by this store called 'Big Star", with this excellent pictogram of their name.

As is becoming evident from the accumulation of images on my site here, I love things that glow or emit light. Neon is right up there with glow sticks and blinky things. I know it can sometimes be cheesy (ala strip club neon etc) but you know, even when it's cheesy, it's kinda cool.

[edit 11/03/06 :: submitted to The Weekly Photo Scavenger Hunt Neon - DOAH! Note to self, read competition rules before posting... bugger, the shot has to be taken in the competition week!]

[edit 17/03/06 :: Hey! Cool! I got an 'honourable mention' with the Photo Scavenger Hunt. Thanks!]
