Point made and well executed photograph. could certainly benefit from a little downcropping.

Very nice. Could be used in an ad... I'm tired after a hard day, so I can't think of what KIND of an ad, but it's definitely extremely well done in a technical and compositional sense. :) (9)

Witty compostion and everything is technically correct aside from the compression artifacts in the gray area. Seeing as the photo is only 82.31K this could have been preventable. Yet it does not detract at first look for me. 8

The image is a little noisy. Using a program such as neatimage would help that. I like the colours in this picture. jgillard6

Thanks for the extra time you spent with my critique. You have pointed out some interesting points. I wasn't completely satisfied with the picture but I was getting tired and impatient. I am still working with making my files the right size and am not comfortable with PS, I hope time and practice will get me past this. The junk in the background, I didn't even notice it until after I submitted it to DPC, and I decided it was too late to do over because my model had left, so I went with it. I appreciate you and others for bringing these improvements to my attention, I will only hope I remember to take them into consideration on my future photographs. I sure will try.
Thanks again,
Dick

Drew's Stop Sign Revisited

Comment by autool:
It looks as though Tracy's surrounding countryside has helped me out again. Since participating on DPC I have learned to always be on the lookout for material to use for better photographs. Thanks DPC for opening my eyes to what is around me, for many years I took the environment for granted and now I use the hell out of it.
I had a great deal of difficulty finding a title for this subject and I appologize if anyone might have thought it was not appropriate. Thanks Drew for making such a wonderful shot of a most pristine stop sign a year ago. Mine seemed to be an exact opposite so hence, the comparison. My feelings about my sign were that even though it was yelling STOP!, the shooter who had the word stop engraved in his sights, went ahead and shot anyway. It is kind of a reflection of our current society.
To all of you that enjoyed this shot and made such wonderful comments I sincerely thank you, your comments mean so much to me. Okay lets all go out and have some more fun.
Dick
