As Slow as a Tortoise

This is so cool! Is it for real, or is it one of those signs you can buy? Nice use of colours for the border, perhaps would have cropped the trees off and concentrated only on the sign.

I am not sure how you did this, but I love the effect you have created, really changes a boring scene into something very interesting. Good Luck!

What a fantastic building, would have done so well in the windows and doors challenge, however is a bit weak on the signs! Still, I love this! Isn't this the same architect whose ideas they are thinking of using for the Gound Zero site?

I love the composition of this, also good use of DOF to emphasise the sign. Good Luck

What a great, atmospheric shot this is, with the road sign totally matching the mood of the scene. Good Luck!

This is a great street scene and great in B/W. Not sure that the road sign element is strong enough, but I still like it!

Lovely contrast in colour here, a good simple composition

This is a great shot, very interesting wall behind and great use of title to tell a story. Perhaps colour saturation could be boosted a bit on the sign.

Composition-Content
Now this one really deserved to win! Something we can all relate to and the best DPC fanatic picture I have seen on this site! Really got me lauging! I love the composition of this, really looks like someone just got a new tattoo and showing it off to their friends. Great simple composition, with the hands perfectly placed and the dark clothing, the jeans just showing enough detail but without distracting from the point. "Cheeky" but no crude!
Background
I like the way that the black T.shirt has faded into the background, creating negative space and once more allowing the viewer to concentrate on the interesting part! Perhaps the highlights from the belt on the left, behind the arm, could have been covered up, a minor detail.
Technical
You had a few comments that the lighting was a bit dark, personally I think that the lighting is pretty good here, with the skin being evenly lit, with no blown out parts. The lighting is strongest on the DPC logo which is good cause it brings attention to it, not that anyone could miss it! Focus seems spot on, with the Logo in sharp focus but the hand on the right slightly softer.
My Opinion
I think that this is a great shot, perfectly fits the challenge, definitely gets a few laughs and is technically well done. Just a shame that it wasn't in the top 3. B/W issues, bare skin issues, who knows? I think that this should be the new DPC advertisment. Anyway, hope that this helps yo and Good Luck in the next challenge.
