I've waffled on this for some time now. While I think you make a very strong statement with this photo, in the end I think I must vote for the spirit of the challenge. As such I don't think this image meets the challenge because there isn't a road sign. As for the photo itself I very much like the concept. I have two minor issues though. First is the relatively shallow DOF. I would prefer a tighter aperture and the same level of sharpness in the fore and backgrounds. The second issue is the strong line of the pole and the building mirror each other and are too close. If you came around slightly to the right you could have both virticles but the added distance between them I think would make the image overall stronger. Have you considered a B&W version? It seems it like it would be appropriate for this type of image.

Good idea. Don't like the angle of view on this one in connection with the title.

Focus and depth of field are missing here.

I find the background a bit busy which detracts from the main subject.
