This is so well done. The problem I think you might run into here is the sign is not the main focus of the shot. I know it�s not required that it be the main focus, but many of the voters tend to have a very narrow vision of meeting a challenge. This is a �road sign� photographed in all it�s natural glory. I like the artistic elements present in this shot. However when I look at this, I think of cool bright colors, green moss, broken windows, weeds, abandoned buildings�� One of the last things to enter my mind is �road sign� I often get annoyed with this aspect of the voters on DPChallenge. It seems a failure at times for many of them to see the art within the picture. It�s not easy to make a work of art out of a road sign. - This is a great shot, one of only two 10�s from me this week. Good Luck with the rest of the voters.

Nice eye here. The window really adds to the shot. It makes me wonder where this is that a sign could be so neglected. Good job!

Sad, compelling, quiet and a little creepy. Very evocative photo. Nice composition and mood. Green window pane balances the image well. Very nice. 9 md

The topic of your picture is awesome and your composition with the green windows too. I thing it could have been improved by lowering the saturation of the colors yellow, blue and even red and strenghten the green. I tried it and in my opinion it looks better: the dirt below the the window will look not as dirty but rather like a patina. A frame might have been nice too.
Still a wonderfull picture. good luck to you.

This is a dynamite picture! Very interesting. The only thing I would like is for the foreground snow to have been cropped out.
