I liked the colors.

nice colours here, very vigbrant and alive, but wonder if you should have shown more of the sign, it appears that you've cut out some of the top of the name?? Sure comes alive at you though! Nice job.

so with a digital camera you can edit the pictures, cut out different neon letters, set them against a black background, spell out anything you like. looks real neat, kinda like old-fashioned newspaper-cut randsom notes, only bright neon.

off topic, an advertisement not road sign

I really like the colors in this photo. But the cropping is a little confusing... I get the feeling like I'm missing something. Focus and exposure seem right on.

Very bright and colorful. Good focus, love the colors. It seems very tightly cropped, was this to exclude bad things? If possible, a tad looser crop might have been nice. 8 Swash

Beautiful colors, nicely focused. Maybe a little tightly cropped. But I do not take this to be a "road sign". It is a business establishment sign.

Interesting colors, cropped a little tight though.

This is an interesting photograph. I find that you cropped it a bit too close to the letters though, and that's a shame, because I think it detracts from it. keep up the good work :) -Annida

Nice exposure and focus (very sharp), and colour. Why is the last L partly cropped?

Very nice shot... but is it a "road sign"? I like it too much to take off points for such nitpicking.

This isn't a road sign - it's a shop sign...

I'm a bit reluctant to qualify this as a road sign, even if it is a sign that's on the road. Aside from that, though, it's a little blurry, and you cut off bits of the letters that should've stayed.
