There Are Some Things In Life I Can't Explain...

...and this is one of them. I'm not sure who stuck this crazy candle holder (???) in the ground next to this street sign, but it must have made sense to them.
Love images like this!Makes you wonder.Great capture

Weird, definitely.

Great find. Very mysterious.

Great shot!

I think they are rather romantic. The cabin looks mysterious.

This pic definitely feels like there's a story behind it!

I had to look twice to see it, that is a mystery.
October 15th, 2013  
Cool catch. Interesting observation and love the tones.
October 15th, 2013  
Very nice capture...:)

To light the streetname sign, obviously. Now why such a sign appears to be standing in the middle of someone's garden is another question. Riddles, wrapped in mysteries, inside enigmas.

I guess they thought it needed something to make it more scenic
October 15th, 2013  
So well spotted. Guess they had their reasons, but it does make a great capture!

Interesting ... like the selective color too!

@mzzhope Thank you Hope! It's good to wonder.
@taffy Thank you Taffy! (o:
@sangwann Thank you Dione!
@jennwithtwons Thank you Jenn!
@yaorenliu Thank you Yao! This house has been empty for quite some time, but it is looked after somewhat. But who knows why it is unoccupied? That could truly be the beginning of a great mystery.
@alia_801 Thanks Alia! What story would you give it? (o:
@nicolecampbell Thank you Nicole! If you think it's hard to see it this way, you should see the color version!
@cimes1 Thank you Carole! It worked best to put it in sepia, but I wanted some of the color to be hinted at, so I faded in some greens.
@tuya Thank you Claire!
@kaesebiscuit Thank you Mr. Biscuit! So many questions!! It's enough to give you a headache!!
@bkbinthecity lol Thanks Brian! Well, it's scenic alright!
@salza Thanks Sally! I'm not sure but it could have been some teens being funny. It doesn't really matter though- the picture is just plain funny.
@archaeofrog Thanks Katie! In full color it was very difficult to see the candle holder. SC seemed to be a viable option to bring out the subject and subdue the overly cluttered background.

i actually find the sign itself rather intriguing... is the street named scenic? or is it pointing the way to a scenic drive? bizarre and decidedly whimsical!

@northy Thanks Northy! Yes, this is the street name- although if you drove on it looking for something scenic you might be a bit disappointed! Our street used to be called Island View Drive. We live on a top of a mountain. Let's just say the people who named the streets in this area were a little challenged in the "name should associate with area" department.

very cool

That sign can't be overlooked. like to go further down a bit to see if the name rings true. somehow I doubt it. but great catch with the candle holder stuck to it.

@twr Thank you Timothy!
@bruni Thank you Bruni! Actually it is a pretty street and there are some cute little houses on it too.

Bev
Great shot, Ann! Love that sign! Perhaps the candle holder is for night lighting because there may be no street lights. Well done :)
October 20th, 2013  
Nice find!
