Skipping Girl - Neon Nights 1

Skipping Girl is a neon sign in Melbourne that is a bit of an icon. The company may have moved on but the sign was restored but it doesn’t actually work anymore. I thought I would take a picture of it with my new little P & S Nikon and then add the neon back. This is part of a series of different takes on Skipping Girl which is a bit pop artish and just fun to make.

Skipping Girl is at the East end of Victoria Street across from Victoria Gardens/Ikea. She is resting on the same building but it is apartments.
