I do share your dislike of the look of most signs when they start to 'take over'.

Makes it all the more interesting! The exact opposite is true here in Germany, no signs are allowed along the highways nor roads, only at certain times like when voting time is coming around. but they are then taken down again. stores do have signs, but only above the doors. I was so used to billboards and such in NJ, I thought the landscape looked naked here without all that garrish color. Now I am used to it and can see why germany does not allow all that trash to clutter their lovely countryside. Hope all is well there. I hear congratulations are in order, since you have taken over from patty for the shoot outs! I think it is great.

The local signs ...That last picture is exceptional!<br />The local signs being all in portugese gives you a special perspective - you can appreciate them as works of art. That's what I did when I first moved here and didn't speak the language, and now the words get in the way of the forms and colors and innocent wondering about what the heck it means.NanUhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11596765792663269178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8857497244999698317.post-37441781994671117612009-08-21T02:56:23.696-04:002009-08-21T02:56:23.696-04:00I like it that you went beyond the literal sense f...I like it that you went beyond the literal sense for signs.
