Something for the Weekend - Part 224 - A milestone in life!

Hi,
We had some great images in our shaving brush challenge - thanks to everyone who took part.

 

Every project needs some milestones and this week we have ours. I wonder what it has seen as it sits by the side of the road. Can you show us?

The “rules”:

  • Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry.
  • Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc.
  • Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”.
  • There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!
  • The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only.

 

To download the starter image, hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right. Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser). I've already put it on a transparent background, to save you time masking.

 

 

When posting back your image — please use the blue reply button in this first post and use the 'Insert Photos' icon at the top of the reply box. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry, then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

 

Have fun!

 

Dave

Blimey, they're a fair size. They must feed them well along that road! 🙂

I thought it might be fun to confuse American forum users.  😉

Hmmm... I am feeling a bit guilty for being so cruel, so I found this vehicle odometer to stave off any panic attacks.  Don't ever say that I'm not good to you American peeps.  The rest of the world can do both.  We can even do fractions, but can't think of a sensible reason for doing so. 😉

Well, we can't accuse you of not going the extra 1.609 kilometres.

Best regards, Euan.

Thank you Dave! It's a lovely but heart-breaking song. I only learned its origin a dozen or so years ago.

Suzanne, is this a scene from a movie, or is it a clever gag on the London Scotland thing?  It's jolly clever either way.

Nice! My first take was also "gravestone" before I looked at it full scale. I've not been back to the UK since the early 1980s, so I'd forgotten that milestones even exist!

Lol, I never even knew milestones exist.
