Piccadilly Circus - Microsoft affect Coca-Cola ads

I Know, he is the saboteur

Piccadilly Circus - Microsoft affect Coca-Cola ads by Rosso (afka siamonesti).

In Piccadilly Circus suddenly the Coke ads stopped to work. Why? Just because it's running on a MS platform, maybe. Best viewed large.

Thank you for all the visits.

To whom it may concern, I shot twice, first with zoom at 18mm then at 70mm.

This is the secon shot with 70mm zoom:

No way. Surely a Photoshop job?

Although I hope not :)

Rosso (afka siamonesti) says:

I swear it's not Photoshop made(except the outcut showing the detail, of course). I was there and when I saw it I couldn't believe my eyes, so I've taken off my camera and, this is it. (RAW file as a proof available ;) )

BTW, thanks for all this visits and fav :)

pauldwaite says:

I believe you. It's awesome.

I reckon you should post the original too, without the outcut. I'd put it up on my desk :)

Perhaps this is a new branding strategy by Coke? ;-)

I wouldn't be the least surprised at this.
One time I visited a Canon Store and found the touch screens running Windows 95. This was about the time when XP had made its debut.
I certainly wouldn't buy a car from Bill Gates. Last thing I need is an illegal operation in the middle of the highway.
