It's rare that I'm tempted to post a shot that is almost identical to one that I've posted before, but the missing ‘E’ caught my attention today. I don't know when it fell off – it may be quite some time ago – but I couldn't resist another shot. I also noticed quite a few other changes when I compared them side-by-side – some more obvious than others – that probably wouldn't have registered if I hadn't taken this photograph.

It's only subtle, but the processing on the latest one is much better in my opinion. It's great to see them side by side.

I love your work. consider me a lurker, I check in quite frequently but never comment. I just wanted to say, i am constantly amazed at how you can produce such wonderful images on a regular basis.
You are mining photographic gold nuggets from Blackpool, I aspire to do the same for my town someday.

This is my fave of your series. It's just packed full of stories. It's one of those "I wish I would have shot that" shot.
This is, by far, the best photo in a long time!
If your site had a "favorite it" button. It would have pressed it :)

Excellent as usual (aren' you tired of being so good ?) Congrats

Fantastic photo, beautiful colorful symmetry, except I wonder what made you decide to not clone out the passing bird...

Thanks all.
Azhar: if this was the only shot I'd taken of this sign, I would probably have cloned out the bird, but as there wasn't a bird in the previous one I posted I decided to leave it in.

This is wild! The contrast / color saturation between the warm and cool colors is making my screen jump. Very crisp clean exposure.

Isn't it called urban decline ..or attrition or even lack of money or something .... richard
I'm amazed my the similarity in the tones of the images considering the different sensors, exposures and such.
Great colors. It may not amuse, but it is quite fantastic.
Superb super saturation in the sky. The 'gull makes a nice accent too.
I like it that you are using the 5D recently - I just got a 5D myself - I can come here to see what it is capable of :-)
eric and mykodachrome: it's called photoshop.
dave: I actually like this, for the comparison... I like seeing how things change over time.
Colour contrast is bursting!
Latin?
verb, amus : you and I see, we do see, we are seeing.
apparently.
nice shot, shows off the 'Las Vegas of the North' perfectly.
