A Distortion Of The Past

A Distortion Of The Past in Stayton Oregon

This mirror resides in the parking lot of the somewhat retro-oriented A&W restaurant on Washington St. It creates some nifty distortions... the guy in the photo looks like a giant compared to the children on either side of him. It makes me giggle.

I am assuming the mirror is there to help motorists, but looking at the distortions in your picture it may be more of a hinderance

Simon, actually, I think it might be there so the employees inside the building can see what's going on in the parking lot, though I'm not sure. It's located above a parking space, for what it's worth.

I found your reference to A&W fascinating. I never thought of them being a national chain. I always thought they were something local. At least they are A&W Rootbeer stands around here. Nice shot by the way.

I added some computer generated art to my blog today. Some people like it and some do not. You can see it at my blog. Brookville Daily Photo
