Eerie lighting and a remarkable feeling of being watched. Very unusual photo.

Excellent stuff - very nice observation. Just a little more DOF would have helped here.
Miah - top comment! ;)

Well deserved and I can see why you like this place so much. Your Dad would be proud of you.

Smart shot. Nice composition and contextual detail. A touch heavy on the reds and I'd like to have seen the streaks right across the shot.

Rue du Champ-de-Mars

Very interesting composition, lovely tones and texture, and a smart sign too. Very neat and hangable. If anything, it's a little wide of the brief as the sign isn't technically a road sign but it's seen from the road. But it doesn't really matter since I would much prefer to see a shot like this repetively than a shot that simply wins a challenge. [9]

Nice, dynamic angle but suffers a little for overexposure. I think mono would work well if all the tones were deeper and showed off that bubbling paint work some more. Nice.

I very much like the glowing warmth and crisp texture of the paper. Good composition apart from the distracting dark shapes at the top. It's more potent with these cropped out.

Edit: tsk - typos!

Stop
by Crafty Sue

If you're going to shoot a STOP sign, then you ought to try something creative, other than plonking it dead centre and slightly out of focus! Sorry, but not only are there dozens of them, this is uninterestingly shot with quite unpleasant colours.

An off-centre composition normally helps and a steady hand and sharp focus is essential. Trying to find a reason to relate the word 'STOP' would help too - like a bird flying past or someone walking perhaps?

I don't know where your roads are but this is a sign to me that you may have driven too far!
Surely, you submitted this by accident? This is 'Road Signs Re-visited'!! :D

Nice capture but it's all a bit out of focus (by the way).

Nice image of somewhere far away from me! Good DOF and nice use of duotone. If anything, I struggle to find a message, but there may not be one of course. ;)

It makes a hangable photo, which I prefer to one that simply wins a ribbon.
