What a great capture. It fits the challenge will. I love the blues and the texture of the post.

Nice tone on the post. There seems to be an excessive amount of jpeg artifacts along the edge of the signs.

Good colors - nice lighting and a perfect sign showing opposites. I was going to say you needed more light on "side street" but finally concluded that is was a nice irony that the side street is shadowed. Composition seems a bit centered - and just wonder what would it look like if it was shot with the sign pole being a little diagonal instead of straight vertical.

I'm not sure if they are opposites?
But a nice idea.
The "side St." seems a bit dark.

I love the signs, Where is this? exposure looks good, but may have used too much of the sharpen tool. 6

Very funny and a nice idea for this challenge! I like that the light falls brightly on the "Main Rd" sign and dimly on the "Side St." The angle is interesting--just showing tree and sky in the background really focuses attention on the subject. There is a little pixelation on the signs and the tree -- probably just an artifact of compression to meet the challenge requirements. Overall, very nice.

This is classic. The focus seems a little off, but that may just be your camera's digitization.

I'm from a small town, so i definitely appreciate this pic!! only problem is, it kinda hurts my eyes to look at because its oversharpened.

I like this picture a lot, and it fits the challenge very well. But it is severely oversharpened. I'd want to give this an 8 or 9, but the oversharpening drops it a few points.
