Awesome job! Talk about pollution, yuck! Is the sign showing the direction of the road?

I like the idea but you could've composed it better.

Would be better without the pickup roof and the median sign.

A casual shot from the hip: what is the red rim at the bottom? Why the traffic sign? The composition is sloppy - this picture is clearly not taken for a photo challenge with the theme "camouflage". OK, the hills are nicely veiled, but somehow they remain nothing but a background - for nothing.

Compositionally, I'd advise to crop the bottom of the photograph, because of it's prominence of the top of the vehicle, particularly in relation to the sign, your eye is naturally drawn to that instead of any camoflauged background.

Interesting sign language.

Besides the fact that they aren't camouflaged, the bottom part of the picture is very distracting -- the roof of the pickup (I take it you are shooting from the bed?) and the road sign just don't belong.

Artisticly not the most pleasing image, I don't like the dash in the frame, although the traffic sign is a good touch. As for meeting the challenge, its a tough call. I think it comes down to intent. The mountains did not generate the smog/haze themselves for the purpose of hiding, but then if the mountains weren't there the haze might have blown away...... Lawdy! Have a 6

Interesting scene. Youve maybe left too much of the foreground to get the best of what you have here. You certainly needed to loose the car spoiler and I'm not sure if loosing the sign would throw the focus out into the hills area for more impact.

I would like it better without the truck roof in the foreground. I haven't decided yet about the traffic sign.

This image is a great concept, I like the creativity in not choosing the typical 'camoflauge' items. However I think that the image would greatly improve if the sign and the ?dashboard top? were not in it; they are much clearer than anything else in the image and it's distracting.
