While the perpective certainly makes this photo an interesting one I feel a little uncomfortable with how much the left edge is being crowded. I would like to see the angle of the pole exaggerated even more so that the round sign is positioned on the right side with the top of the post in its same location to create an even more dynamic look and feel to the image. This positioning would also create triangular shapes in the negative space that would compliment the triangular sign. The reflection of the light bothers me a little as well and maybe the use of a polarizer filter could have reduced the reflection. You chose a good background that adds to the dramatic effect. The colors are good and overall the photo is very sharp and clean. The border does a nice job of presenting your photo without overpowering it. All and all you did a nice job with this photo.

| I'm really surprised that this one didn't do better. Ironic really that the grafitti that so many people didn't like was the whole point of the photo!! It was a shame that the reflection of the light was there though. |

| Nice viewpoint. The only thing I don't like about this photo is the reflection of the light on the Give Way sign, it's a shame that the light was on. |

| the signs are too dark, the reflection of the light isn't a plus, the graffiti also takes away. this is a good example of how to use perspective to make your photo stand out against the sky |

| This is intresting and a good shot to. I understand that Tag is the term for Marked by Graffitti but I think it actually takes away form the shot. |

| I would have really liked this without the graffiti. Angle of shot and composition are nice. |

| I sure wouldn't know what to do here. I'd give way to everyone I guess and not move until I was the last one left. Love the angle you took it at. That adds at least 2 to 3 more points. Good focus and crop. Real nice job. It's a 8 from me. |
