I took this shot on MLK Day in Harlem @ (of course) 125th Street & 2nd Avenue. 125th is also known as MLK Blvd. I thought is was appropriate, especially on this day as we celebrate his birthday.
PLus it was WAY too COLD to go hunting for funny or bizarre ones.

Interesting angle used in this photograph. Is the sign lettering really that darker gray? I ask because it looks a bit underexposed. Good overall image.
Hear! Hear! Happy b-day MLK! I like your creative angle - almost like the sign is reaching down to touch us. The lighting could be better - hard to get it right with the bright sky behind - a flash might reflect off the sign nicely?
Hey, great catch - extra credit for matching the date to the theme to the shot! Very minor nit - the torn flag thing lower center detracts from the rest of the composition.
