  • Peculiar warning sign to buses for Rutting, worn road surfaces. The pun is centered around the word 'Rutting' which also involves the innuendo of sexual activity - or 'the mating of a stag'. travellers wait for buses at this bus stop on Waterloo Bridge in central London. It's located on the Southbank, known in history as a destination for brothels and places of ill repute and Londoners from the City on the north bank would take a river taxi to frequent these places. But the sign also warns bus drivers of the danger from an uneven road surface, a result of partially melted or displaced tarmac causing ruts in the road - hence the pun.

  • Near the end of the military runway at RAF Mildenhall in Suffolk England, a road sign warns of low-flying aircraft near the base which is populated by the United States Air Force Refuelling Wing.

In the UK, the Highway Code for road-users lists this warning sign (always triangular) as "Low-flying aircraft or sudden aircraft noise." Picture from the 'Plane Pictures' project, a celebration of aviation aesthetics and flying culture, 100 years after the Wright brothers first 12 seconds/120 feet powered flight at Kitty Hawk,1903.

  • A warning sign on an alpine mountaintop for skiers, tells them of a closed piste and of a no marked and controlled trail. From the heights of this Alpine mountain, we look down the snow-filled valleys on a beautifully clear winter’s day. Lower peaks stretch into the distance and it is a landscape of extreme beauty and wonder. Little pollution or smog is evident and we see the sign that is situated in plain view of skiers who have dismounted their cable car in Liechtenstein. The warnings are written in 4 languages: German; French; Italian and English for the sake of international skiing enthusiasts who may wish to venture off-piste, taking their own risks but enjoying as much more adventurous form of free skiing.
