I decided to enter this challenge towards the end of the week and the only day available to me to shoot was wet, dull & overcast.
I found this sign and thought that it would make an interesting shot. I waited for the rain to stop, composed the shot and then this Police car drove past adding further interest.
I don't have high hopes for the challenge, but I took the picture for this purpose and I quite like the content. Lets see!

I sympathise having dull British weather, but you've done a good job to get an interesting subject out of it. The scene is gloomily typical of our urban areas and your capture of the cop car is a nice addition of social contrast. I like this a lot. [8]

Very nicely done... so much great detail and counterpoint of color and texture.

the yellow car is distracting, and seems out of theme with the foreground. Nice composition.

Sign of the times is correct...what a sad social commentary that is is as well.
