Eye Spy ....

This sign showing a cross section of an eyeball is a real standout as you drive past it even on a very busy St Clair Ave. I finally stopped recently to catch a pic and unfortunately at this time of year it is hard to keep a storefront clean, so the building is a bit splashed.

    The eye ball does stand out! It's a great picture. We have a street named that here too, and this corner looks much like our street as well! Funny right.

    I don't think I've ever seen such a graphic diagram used to attract attention to an eye clinic before. They usually save those kinds of displays for inside the exam room.

    At some point or another I've seen this place before. It is quite a graphic.

    It's not often that you see this outside like it is shown here. I like it!

    Certainly different, but very apt... and eye catching!

    The eyeball is unique and cute and I like it. But I can't hardly see any dirt splashed on the building. Maybe I should stop by and get my vision checked out there? Oui?

    It's rather impressive. Aren't our eyes something incredible?

    If you didn't know what it was, you wouldn't know what it was, would you? The eye always seems a small miracle to me.

    I have never seen a sign of the diagram of an eye. You have a great eye for signs.

    Not sure I like the eye. I'd rather some things remain a "mystery". I'm very squeamish. ;-)

    This reminds me of a local place call "Eye Site." Nice play on words. Tom The Backroads Traveller

    This looks like it should be an old sign, yet I don't recall ever seeing it. Love it!

    Nothing like an eyeball graphic for an eye clinic sign. Well spotted.

    The eyeball is a bit creepy, but at least it is in black and white ;)

    No doubt about what type of business that is.

    The black contrasts the brick nicely.

    a lovely capture - dirt and all - i'm a bit intrigued by the thing on the right - is it a fire hydrant?

    The eye is ceratinly an attention grabber. It looks so bold in white outline on black surface.

    Eyeball close-ups bother me. Not like this, but watching medical procedures on eyes. No Thanks.
