This is the second contest I have entered so far. The idea behind this picture is for your brain to look at the crayons and associate color with them, thus creating "color in B&W". I would appreciate as many comments as possible. Sorry the image is grainy. I would take another one, but I don't have time...

Thanks for the tips! I will try to improve my contrast and resolution on my next B&W submission.

Everyone used crayons.. try lots of shots at multiple angles, some lower on the horizone.

you could really use a contrast boost on this one... its comes off pretty muddy

The image seems a bit too gray. Upping the contrast to add more white and more black would make everything stand out better. Since most westerners read from the top left to the bottom right, the eye sees it as strange when text is angled the opposite way.

A simpler background, more clarity, and brand new (all) crayolas would've made this even stronger. BTW commenting only
