Nice perspective. The shapes against that nice gradient of sky looks very good.

I feel like this is a great concept that could have been done much better. Maybe if it was in a location where every mailbox looked the same, and you had a more dramatic viewpoint, such that the mailboxes could extend (seemingly) to infinity. Also, the boxes on the far right mold together to a shape that could really be anything, and it kind of makes the concept of mailboxes fall apart.
