A stop sign. It's actually not in color. It's converted to greyscale and then duotoned.

once again my top picks bite the dust - Why did I give it a nine? - I wish I had given a ten. This reminds me of your train picture with the crossing sign.

Strange crop.....it's a bit to abstract for me.

its tough to distinguish what exactly is rusty with this mono-toned image. i dont really see the focal point of this photo either, cause you have bright white lettering or number, which is cut off and isnt distinguishable as any form of word or number, and a bolt with a streak running down from it. i am assuming that the bolt is the rusty part along with the streak, but its hard to tell. maybe if you had zoomed in a little on the bolt and made it your main subject and left the photo with natural colors it would have been easier to tell. 5

This is excellent. I enjoy an image where the photographer sees beyond the 'whole' and starts to work with specific elemtns of an object. A stop sign on its own has an interesting shape and possibly some nice contrast with its environment, but you have observed a detail within the sign that has a lot of strength on its own. Wind, weather, and storm take their toll on everything. Excellent capture... = 10
