Spinning neon - Perry Utah

The spinning neon sign at the Maddox Ranch House, Perry Utah

I'm surprised at how many people in Utah don't know about the Maddox Ranch House because we were sent to eat there within a few weeks of our arrival in 1993. It's a bit of a drive for a meal, but not a photograph.

Three or four exposures in the multiple exposure mode, letting the d2X calculate each of exposures and controlling the overall effect by using the exposure compensation settings in aperature priority. Oddly, the EXIF data doesn't seem to record the number of shutter openings on the ME setting. I also tried 9, 7 and 5 exposures, but this one retains a sense of legibility to the letters that I like. I've got some more fodder for a possible remix, and a story for the book project that will have to wait. It'll be worth it, trust me.

That is beautiful! Is it a large structure?

I have heard of this place but have never been there. Is the food good?

This is a test comment from an anonymous observer :-)
