This I like a lot. Dare I say that the 'E' is now distracting, but I think it could be cropped or, better yet, cloned out pretty easily. Anyway, I think the shadows are bolder in this version, and really help to punctuate the at-sign effect. Also I think the black-and-white really brings out the rusty, weathered textures here. Nice job.

This has some excellent shapes and textures in it. The colors don't do much for me (the green on the right is distracting). Have you tried it in black-and-white?

You have made it extra harsh with the glare from the room lamp and bad white balance.

i feel that the fence needs to be more the focus in this challenge (all a matter of personal opinion!), and it seems that the fence is just distracting of what is the true focus in the photo

Woot!

Amen to that!!!!! Not the best of shots, but certainly deserves scoring higher for the humor and "truth" in this shot! *grin*

Well if you didn't shoot grainy undersized images with better control of your white levels maybe it wouldn't be quite so harsh.
