We all know what the challenge title is. It is too bad that you could not take the time to be more creative with your titleing.

nice idea, good comp, nice lines, nice color, lighting on sign a bit flat, b&w's good,nice movement, good balance, nice dof, overall very nice

i like this slow shutter shot. but perhaps the emphasize on the "circle" (the signboard) could be improved by making the signboard brighter and thus stand out. pleasing photo.

For this contest everyone who has the word âcircleâ in their title is getting a lower score. This is a copy and paste version that I am including in every photo that I downgrade due to the title. We as members of DPchallenge know the topic of the challenge â we do not need to reread the topic every time we reach a photo. If circle is in the title and it is appropriate I will most likely not down grade, but it better be good. I am sorry if you do not agree with my method of protest â but scores are all I have.

nice circle(s) here, but I find the tailights distracting and the service station lights are over exposed. perhaps concentrating your composition on the two circles with arrows would have been more effective, though the bright spot below the single arrow would have been problematic

shame the whites are burnt out.
plenty of circles but no real focal point for the eye to rest on

Caltex? Where was this taken? South Africa?

Great idea for this challenge ;) I did something similar. Good luck!

Ah, if only you also had stoplight trails in a circle on the background, it would make a lot more sense...
