Location
This photo was taken in Carmel, CA, a small, picturesque coastal city near Monterey. CA. It is a favorite tourist location.Time
It was on July 16, 2018 at around 4:30 in the afternoon while I was walking around the town.Lighting
There is nothing extraordinary about the sign. But. since it was late afternoon and the sun was not hitting the sign I thought the lighting would be uniform. It message really made me smile.Equipment
I used a Canon SX 60; no flash; ISO 160.Inspiration
I could not resist taking this photo since it made me laugh and I hoped it would make others laugh or at least smile. I always try to look for the unusual or different and this qualified.Editing
There was a minimum of post-processing with some clarity and vibrance.In my camera bag
I typically have my camera, small tripod, additional battery and memory card. I do not own sophisticated equipment but I don't believe one needs that in order to take good photos.Feedback
Look for something unusual especially if you are a tourist and think you need to take something picturesque. Taking digital photos is cost free so you can take numerous photos of the same subject.
