I thought that one squared = one. lol. Cute shot, but there seems to be too many competing elements. tree building, bench, sky, sidewalk. Doesn't seem to have any focul point. Still an interesting self portrait IMO. Good luck.. Jacko.

Great idea just didn't turn out as well as could have. Good try though. Keep at it.

An interesting idea, but I do not really think it fits the challenge ;) Cool effect though! jgillard5

Not crazy about your title, though that won't affect my vote. There are just too many distractions in this shot for me - trees, buildings, cars, reflections. I think I would have preferred a more straight-on close up of her-she looks kinda cute.

Critique Club:

Composition: Very good. I love the way the angle makes the street light's height exagerated and pulls in the sky by the effect. Loved the way you used the contrasting angles of the sign post and lay of the clouds along with the title to make an otherwise ordinary photo of a street sign very entertaining. I like the color scheme which helps bring out the colored reflection on the sign. The light above does not bother me, as it did some in the other comments below. Actually, the image at the bottom of the speed sign bothers me slightly and wondered how this would be with that cropped out for your final submission. Even though the sky is technically not "negative space", it is in a sense and ads to the focus on the sign.

Creativity: Excellent due to the unusual angle and use of the angle of the clouds and somewhat humorous title.

Technical Quality: Very good, see no obvious flaws in clarity, dof, or post processing issues.

Overall: Really liked this shot and thought your creativity and capture of the "moment" were really great.

Hope you find this helpful.
