Believe it or not, I saw this roadworks sign lying at the edge of a field near our house, and couldn't resist the chance for a photo.

I'd be grateful of comments about how I could have turned this idea/opportunity into a really good photo (if possible!)

It´s comic. Maybe you should have chosen another time of the day to shoot this to get more saturation from the green grass and the colors of the sign, although the background sky seems very nice. The trees in the background are very nice.

Good idea, nice shot. And I think the colours are odd too...!

nice one, but I think the colours are to vivid.

this is too obvious
it is very easy to place a road work sign on a field ...
it's too plain...

Could have used better lighting, but is well composed.

nice idea, but perhaps the grass is a bit too dull...pic could have been lightened

Would have done well in the "Signs" challenge.

Good find for the challenge. Shows a little dark on my monitor, but that's not all bad. Good luck.

interesting - very saturated, maybe a touch too much for my taste.
