Critique Club Comments by Grayce
This has a wonderful aged appearance that just reeks with character. In this high tech society it is refreshing to see this.
I think this image would benefit from including more of the surroundings. It needs a sense of place. Perhaps a little off center and backed off would really bring this to life.

you show the age of the marker very nicely, the greens and whites of time show up, but wonder if you should have shown the whole marker instead of just this part of it. The background falls in nicely also, the greens and browns fo the leaves and brances and the dead material around the right side of the marker. |

kinda wanna see where it hits the ground, like i'd want to see a person's feet. though maybe if you backed up that far you'd lose the focus on the letters. nice texture, looks ripe for macro shots. |

I like this :) Very tombstone-esque. Nice composition, centered works well here, and the DOF is enough to stop the background being too busy. |

the fact that it's hard to read negates the purpose of the close up |

is that a road sign or a tombstone. Either way I like the old rustic look |

Strange rustic sign. What is this made out of? is it copper or just painted? Good find. I like the brightness at the top of the pic. Looks like you almost got a sun flare. Good pic - Inspzil |

Very nice find, there probably arent any signs that old anywhere in the area I live. |

I have a passion for "olde" Europe and this one fits right in! |

Nice photo - it made sense to centre this photo like you have. I might have tried a more shallow depth of field to really blur the bushes in the background (if that option is available to you). Good work |

Is this a "road sign"? I obviously don't understand it. But I might figure it out if the photo had been taken further back and I could see some of the street and surroundings. It's cropped too tightly on the sign for those of us who don't live over there. It is a good sharply focused photo other wise. Just too cramped. Best I can do is give it a 5. |

Straighten it please - tilted pictures are my pet peeve - even if the marker was tilted. |

you would have to driving as fast as a horse buggy to be able to read this sign |

Good shot. DOF could have been a little better.. Cub |

I wonder if this might have worked better with a different angle - say, closer to the ground looking up, or from the side. Nice find, though. |
