The Hollywood sign is much more visible now- it looks incredible from the satellite view.Mon Sep 11 10:42:42 -0700 2006 From: [email protected]
Anybody know why it is black?Mon Apr 16 23:40:02 -0700 2007 From: herz
It appears, according to the Wikipedia, in Nov, 2005 the white paint was stripped and the letters were repainted. "Refurbishment began again in November 2005, as workers stripped the letters back to their metal base and repainted them white." Quote from Wikipedia article. Maybe this shot was taken during the repainting process.Tue Apr 17 06:31:47 -0700 2007 From: SeeKar
It appears black because you are seeing the backs of the letters. Notice the angle of view of the radio tower. Almost like looking down and back, not from directly above.Tue Apr 17 09:35:17 -0700 2007 From: [email protected]
Oh, that makes sense...I would have figured that out if I'd looked closely and noticed the Ls and the W are upside down ;-)Tue Apr 17 18:47:41 -0700 2007 |
