This photo rocks. Great message. Highly deserving of OOBIE.

Well done on the message and ironic title, and congrats on the OOBie!

That's a beaut. I don't think I saw it before the OOBIE awards ceremony. Maybe it would have gone over my head. Isn't that the best thing that can happen with terrorist attacks? The further over your head the better. Maybe that's a bad joke.

In any case, this is a superb bit of camera satire.

Well, I see your point. But limiting that to this is a little wrong signal. As a photo, Because I know your point, I can see the sunset over the city. Clean shot, good composition.

I get the feeling that you are attempting to make a political statement and I can't quite figure it out. The blur in this photo is pretty overwhelming vs. the partially obscured part that is in focus. All in all, this photo confuses me.

concept is good and the title is good. the actual photo needs some work.i t would be better if the top part of the sign were more readable.

Would a slightly higher camera angle have allowed all the text to be clearly backlit?
