| One of the best billboards in the bunch. The first part of your Title is unnecessary, and that background finger is a little distracting to me, but the simplicity of your visual message is fantastic. 8 |

| Clean and simple. Maybe a bit too much so. I keep expecting some kind of shadow ore support for the apple. But then, I guess the magic would be gone... |

ok, i am voting this challenge in 2 passes. in this pass, you will get a partial comment and a score. then i will come back to comment again. if you have any problem whatsoever with this comment, pm me and let me know. otherwise, take it with a grain of salt...i'm not trying to be a know-it-all, i'm just explaining where i'm coming from in voting this challenge. and, if this comment is NOT helpful (of if you think i'm full of $#!+), don't mark it helpful.
billboards are a science unto themselves. a lot of research has gone into determining just how much information a person can digest and retain in specific time spans. they use this information to develop formulas for determining the number of words and letters to use on billboards, as well as their sizes. they also determine the size and number of visual elements to include.
the graphics/photograph on a billboard are designed to get the point across in a moment. on the road, a driver will have less time with a billboard than a voter will give your image. this is a key element in the challenge: composing a shot that will get its point across quickly and succintly. along those lines, a strong composition will probably have few details and make strong use of negative space.

you nailed it! excellent work. at 90 mph, i'd know i'd have about 45 seconds to slow down. i really hope to see this on the front page! |

| Great - but better with a stem (and maybe a leaf) on the apple. Otherwise - great job. |

| Great shot! Very well done. Way to make a fruit stand sign look cutting edge. 9 |

| It's a great shot but perhaps a little too high tech for a fruit stand? More like IBM or Mac material. |
