Close up shot from a long way traffic sign.
I was just thinking we see lots of signs when we travel, some of we care much, some of we ignore maybe... So i give a different meaning to it for this time just for fun.

This one is warning us to be concious consumer, "dont buy a second car!" :) This is something i really think that we shouldnt buy or consume more than we need, world is getting out of sources and polluted more everyday..

Hi Elif, great twist on this well-known traffic sign !

Wonderful !

Marleen

LOL! You're so funny :-). Good work!
I'm going to take some time off from TL. Work is busy these days and we're preparing our marriage, too... I'll come by now and then to check your pictures!
Take care, happy girlie!
Annelies

Funny interpretation with a serious tone.
I like your crop on this; we know the shape of the sign, so why show it complete?;
I see the simple way to draw a car; these signarchitects are really good minimalists.

very good Elif.

Hi Elif,
It's funny my friend :D)))) They have a correction with the sign here....

Starting is " Don't near my car" new traffic law "don't buy a second car" :)... Good joke of the day :D))) TFS

Very funny note for a funny interpretation on a common road sign, Elif. Nice details on the sign and nice sharpness. Well done!

Hi Elif,
you drive your car different.
İ don't want travel with you:) because you can stop anytime anywhere. likehere
Your think about a second car and way of explain it is interesting.
Sorry about English.
Merhaba Elif,
Seninle arabaya binmek istemem; çünkü nerede durup ne zaman duracağın hiç belli olmuyor anlaşılan.İkinci bir araba alma konusundaki düşüncen ve bunu anlatış tarzın çok ilginç.

Very funny!!
