Leftover from my youth...decided to go stick it where it would look weird. Used a fill flash to brighten up the sign. Not sure I'll be breaking any scoring records with this one but thought I'd do something that others wouldn't.

Sorry, but I don't get anything out of this one. It is great focus and all but I can tell nothing. Can't even tell if it is on a post or lying on the ground or standing up. I do hope you explain it to us.

really cool, texture gives it the look of a macro shot. borders don't do much for me, i think they're a fad. soon they'll go the way of the wacky wal-walker.

this picture is not pleasing to my eye...I am not sure if it is the angle or the background

Odd shot. Did you find it this way, or did you plant the sign? (No matter, just curious) Very good focus/color - interesting framing and angle. 8 Swash

Wonderful shot, great idea. Did you polish this sign before you stuck it in the ground? 8 from me.

Interesting take on the challenge, I like it. Very crisp focus. I hope you didn\'t knock down the sign yourself!! I wonder if this would look as good or better in a landscape orientation.

Aarggh - this photo makes me dizzy. My brain tells me that I'm looking straight down (or even titled further than "straight" down). I presume the sign is sticking out of the ground for some reason. Technically a good photo, but I'm not sure about it's message - what is it trying to say?

A cleverly original idea :) You can't get more in the road than this! -9- Annida

Great idea. Would have been even better if the sign was flipped around and the shadow acted as the post. Good work. 8
