I like the idea of taking the photo at an agle. Just personally don't like this angle. Makes the tope of the ducks sign fade out. Also placement is akward in fame - hard to center it diagonally.

Nice perspective shot. Too bad the signs are so grainy. Maybe they are just dirty, I can't tell. Good photo anyway.

I like how you filled the entire frame. I'm not crazy about the angle, find it a bit disorienting. Good luck. Jacko. 7

The perspective is very good..I like your angle shot..only suggestion would be that the glare on the top sign is distracting.

Nice angle, good photo, but the sky seems a little over-exposed and bleeds into the top of the sign. 9

Sky is totally devoid of color.

nice perspective. the lighting on the top of the sign is too harsh. powelines aren't good either. good composition though

Good angle. Original idea.

I like the concept - as explained by the title. I find the whitish sky a little too intense, especially at the top point of the sign. Also the yellow portion of the border looks great as the signs base but is washed out at the top of the image. Overall though, not a bad photo at all - certainly has some interest to it.

I'm guessing here that the ISO was a little high for this, hence the coarse grain and the brightness on the top right hand side? Great idea though!

Great idea for the shot! I bit overexposed on the top though... Was there anybody watching when you crouched down on the side of the road to get this? ;)

Aww, too bad about the powerlines. Times like this makes you want to allow post processing touchups, huh?

is it oversaturated or is the yellow paint damaged? nice angle and crop

Nice concept, and photograph. I wish the top of the sign hadn't been quite as bright, but this is still a very good shot.
