Stoplights like this don’t really exist in other places. Or if they do, they are strange abberrant intersections. Boston is its own universe of crappy intersections, bad signage (I hate that word), and horrible drivers. Every day I discover a new stupid thing. The nexus of evil is The Fenway, the worst collection of rotaries and one-ways on the planet. But, that’s for another day.
Today, it’s the stoplight from hell. In actuality this light means “don’t turn left,” but that’s not really obvious here.
If you dimmed the brightness of the lights, this would make a good desktop background.
The only way I can make it look any less crappy is by going to black and white. The range of brightness between the lights (which appear as white, if you look), and the background is too great to improve the image any. A daytime shot might work.
